1983 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme Sedan LS Turbo Build

I think any higher and it won't drain back from the turbo. Usually people drain to the pan, but I thought this would work.

Be happy you didn't buy the Holley 302-3 pan with the drains expecting them to be useful on a G body. You also could drain back to the truck pan oil sensor port, it's a pretty common metric thread.

It will work, you just need a 90° instead of a straight....View attachment 103421

Much like an Instagram "model", any excuse to post a pic of that gorgeous thing. 😍😆

The cover is tapped for 1/2" NPT. I will see if I can bend the 90* fitting I have to clear. I don't want to take the balancer off again if I don't have to. I will look into this fitting too. Thanks!

FYI JIC (joint industry commission) fittings are the same as AN fittings

I have a cts-v pan and thought about using the oil level sensor port and in was told I couldn't use that because it was too high or something like that.

Interesting, seems like it would work to me. I could be totally wrong though. I might have to look into it myself.

Weld on. I can't take credit though. I bought an ICT billet one. If one drain is good, two must be better, 😏....View attachment 103425

I just emailed ICT Billet about purchasing the fitting separately since it's not listed on their site and they do sell it as a phone in order for $7.99!

Just some food for thought!

Well if one is good, two must be better (Walbro 450 E-85 pumps):

Please post a pic of how you hang them. I'm likely gonna do something similar down the road.
