Is there a port somewhere for another oil-drain back?
 
it thought i saw someone mention something about a pipe plug on the lower portion of the block near the filter adapter, but i can't seem to see anything..

i'm working on installing the bypass filter..


any help is appreciated!!


thanks.

There is a press in plug on the rearward section of the block on the passenger side. It's on the same elevation as the oil dipstick tube. When I installed my bypass filter I drilled and tapped the valve cover for my return, works great.

so how do most guys go about returning the oil to the pan with a twin setup? just make a new drain pipe with a Y in it?

thanks guys!




i think i might return the oil to the filler neck so i can see when the filter needs to be changed by the degrade in flow..

Most guys with twins weld a port into the oil pan.
