    Figured it would be just for the simple fact IF I ever upgrade to a different turbo later on I wouldn't have to make another line. Plus my feed line was used when I got it and wasn't in the best "shape".

          Yes Sir. I didn't get the metal washers with the rubber ring inside that you should throw on them for a seal.

            Well, if you wanted to look it up by application... I had a 1998 GMC Savanna 1500 in the shop which i replaced calipers on. I had already bought & drilled the HELP 13940 Bolt a week before, and had it handy in my box. When i removed the bolt from the caliper, i compared, and thats it!

              I have the BP block from an EGT and the mazda bolt (70925-000 as in the pic). It doesn't fit for some reason. Seems like the threads are wrong. Anyone experience this? I was going to try the GM one.

                  you might be trying to but the banjo bolt in the wrong hole. there is a coolant port on the block very close to the oil port

                      Or, you could build it like a human being...

                      Here is a HOW TO thread that I have made after "F-ing" around for a lot of time making it for the MP5T, hope it saves a ton of time for anyone who wants to "Custom Turbo".

                      There are several options when considering your Turbo Bering Oil feed and return lines.

                      This will be considered as a BEST CASE SCENARIO; . I realize that not everyone has the desire to spend as much on things or is interested in the Best solution at all cost so bear in mind that my solution might be overpriced in your opinion.

                      First, The Turbo is fed by oil from the engine and that oil is abused and turned into a milky white puss by the turbo bearings spinning at as much as 125,000 RPM. This oil/puss is returned to the oil pan and filtered and sent through again either to the engine or the turbo.

                      Q1: Where Do I get the oil from?
                      A1: On the back of the block, there are two sensors; the one closest to the Oil Filter is the one that triggers your Low Oil Pressure Light on the Dash, That's a good start. Get the fitting that fits the 1/8' Hole to an AN-4 Hose Fitting.

                      Q2: Why does the Oil Return Line Have to be so much larger than the Inlet?
                      A2: The Oil coming out of the housing is thrashed by the Bering and moves slowly. It needs to be able to be pulled by gravity and Air must be able to move up the line at the same time so there is no back pressure to prevent the oil from returning to the oil pan. Overlooking this step could result in inadequate oil supply and Bering failure due to starvation.

                      Q3: Why did you decide to Return the oil to the Crank Support/Wind-age Tray rather than the oil pan?
                      A3: As stated earlier, The oil return line must have air at the base, so for best results, the line should be as high away from the oil in the pan as possible. It is possible to tap this adapter to the oil pan but, make it as high as possible. I do not recomend this. The MSP returns the oil to the Crank Support Plate, Not the pan for a reason.

                      Q4: What Happens to the Oil Pressure Sending Unit after It's removed for the Oil Line?
                      A4: It gets placed into Fitting FBM2818 and hooked up to the wire again unless you have an Autometer Oil Pressure Gauge in Mind, then leave the stock sensor in the garbage and disconnect the line (The light will not come on if the pressure drops so keep an eye on the gauge)

                      Q5: Are You Obsessive Compulsive Brian?
                      A5: Yes, I'm the king of Overkill.

                      When you are building the Oil Supply Line. Make two Separate Lines. A Short One With two straight Ends and a Long One with a 90 Deg and a Straight end. Join the two with the Tee Fitting that the oil sending unit fits into.

                      Here is what you need to do it like I did.

                        2nd pic: Same side for both parts. See how much bigger the OEM bolt hole is and how it goes all the way thru? I was thinking to drill hole on the autoparts store bolt all the way thru with the same size hole as OEM. What do you guys think?

                        3rd pic: Again see how much more of a hole the OEM(right) bolt has on the end? Should I drill that out more as well or leave it?
