oil preesure tap for turbo feed?

Recommended Posts

As I tear more and more into my 79 210 2 door saloon,, I am getting closer to a hard decision to turbo it. I have sourced a pile pf parts, including a small turbo, carb hat topper, downpipe that can be easily modified, and possibly even a suitable carb.

 

I know its easy enough to put a drain tap into the side of the oil pan. But, where does the preasurized oil to feed the turbo come from?

 

Thanks!

a distribution block on the oil pressure switch spot.

 

block screws into the hole the oil pressure sender usually goes.

then the sender goes in one hole and the feed line for the turbo goes in the other

in this particular photo the oil pressure switch is on the right and the fitting in the middle is for the feed line
