Oil Feed & Return

Using an Evo 8 16g6 9.8
Oil Feed:

Is this what I need to connect my feed line to the turbo?

Which sandwich adapter is the best? Is the Prosport one alright?
http://prosportgauges.com/oil-filter-adaptor-plate.aspx

Does the above adapter plate have a 4AN fitting for my feed? Do all sandwich adapters come with a 4AN fitting?

Do I need a banjo bolt to attach the feed line to the sandwich adapter?

Return:

Can I use a bulkhead fitting on the oilpan, tapped and jbwelded?

How long should my return line be? Is about one foot alright?

In General:
Where do you recommend buying return and feed lines, as well as fittings?

Thanks everyone.

Don't take it on 100% but that banjo fitting looks mighty close to what I have. I think your oil line should be 4an and that says 12MM to 4AN BanjoFitting so. I'd go for it.

That is the exact oil sandwich that I have so it will work.

Yeah, the sandwich is 1/8 npt so you need that to go to 4an for your oil line. Something like this. Note the dome shape on one side. Very important!

No banjo bolt to the sandwich adapter.

Oil return is going to be about 7 inches tops. And thats including the hardware! 12 is way too long. I got my stuff from treadstoneperformance.com but theyre kinda pricey. Ebay may have the same stuff.

Thanks a ton man, that answers the last of my questions. I know pretty much exactly how to get it all together now after a few months research. Just need to keep piecing my kit together. Oh and by the way, thank you for the guides; most informative out there.

You can ask me questions too if you have any issues....we pretty much had every
problem you're going to encounter during your install for it to work perfect.
