Outer Limits 4x4 Board

I have just "aquired" a Garrett GT25 and custom manifold for my TD42. It is a standard NA 4.2 in a 99 GU wagon. The question I have is where are the best spots to pick up and return oil. I know a few people return it into the sump but surely for a motor with a turbo variant, it would have somewhere to run it back into and pickup designed for a turbo.

Pics or a good description would be great.

Im going with the turbo, matched length manifold, dump pipe and 3 inch exhaust, most likely with a intercooler a bit later on when funds allow. Any other hints for these mods would be great, The fuel pump will get some work also at some stage and I hope to fit oil pressure, boost and EGT also.

Sorry- Didn't search very well first, lots of links but anybody with any extra info would be great.

Thanks

My oil pick up is from the back of the alternator and return is into the sump

I have the same engine as you in a GQ NA with the same alternator as well, on the LHS of the block forward of the engine mount there are 2 plugs, the large one is the low pressure oil return to sump and the small one taps into an oil gallery and is high pressure.

Thanks

So are they the ones right behind the alternator? I noticed two bungs there when I had a look.

the other prob u may have is fuel depending on how much boost u run . u may find u need an exturnal fuel pump i know i did and know alot of others have had to since

Yeah Bob can be seen on the block behind the alt.
