to clarify, the return line consists of a welded -8an pushlock fitting on the return pipe off the turbo, -8an pushlock hose, -8an pushlock fitting attached to a -6an to -8 an conversion piece on the pan. im not satisfied with the routing of the driver side return line so well be making a new one that is as straight as possible.

Do you think the 3/8" NPT hole will flow enough?
The internal diameter of that fitting looked way too small for me so I drilled it out and tapped it to 1/2" for an 8an fitting.
