Oil layout for Evans with twins

[postban]

Just a little sketch I threw together in AutoTrol. Installing most of this tonight. Gonna have sore hands from all those fittings.
Water layout is no different than standard 03 setup except I am not welding the crossover outlet shut, gonna cheat and use a stub hose and a plug for now. (it points straight down anyway)

This is still +/- a possible fitting or two. I left it huge so you could see the detail and read the part numbers.

As always, your posts are immeasurably informative. Exactly what I needed.

Here is mine, http://store.summitracing.com/defau...eywordSearch&DDS=1&N=115&target=egnsearch.asp

Permacool 403 -10an 8 pass oil cooler, got it from Mjchip with all the rest of the evans stuff. It is all gonna fit man, confirmed it tonight. One thing though, gonna have to move the oil thermostat from behind the cooler to parallel with the ODB, basically where the horns are now. horns can go behind the cooler. Makes a shorter path for pre-temp oil to return to engine that way. Just one more $%#$^ing bracket to make :bash:

I would suggest smaller oil cooler, smaller thermostat, same ODB, same filter remote.

Postban, what size fittings are you using in the oil pan for the return lines off of the turbos, (are the fittings going to be "tapped" in or are you goin to take the pan off and have them welded in??). Also, will those fittings be on the front of the pan or off to one side?? Thanks!

Had two 1/2NPT bungs welded on. One dead center in the front, the other about 2" back from the front on the right side.

this is funny Dave. How we buy kits that are bolt on kits and then while installing decide to change crap so then it is custom to your liking...I just remember doing the same type of crap myself. keep at it, sounds like you are getting damn close.

what about some pics? :thumbsup:

Thanks!!! Can't wait to see pictures!!!

Just a thought, any specific reason for these two locations instead of both in front or one on each side?? Thanks again for the info

The down pipes come straight down in front of the oilpan, only room for one fitting there. The Drivers side is blocked by Power steering pump and water inlet so off to the other side it goes.

You can see what I mean in this pic.

Thank you once again!! :beer:

Update with pics.

Simple bracket for remote oil filter mounting.

Filter relocated, nothing underneath it so no mess during changes.

Before the oil stuff was installed;

Permacool #403 -10AN 8-pass oil cooler

Canton Oil Thermostat

Had to relocate the horns higher in the fender. They were in the way of the oil thermostat.

Combo bracket for mounting Oil Distribution block and oil thermostat. 3"x2" aluminum extruded stock I scrounged.

ODB mounted

Oil Thermostat mounted, also installed Left turbo-to-IC pipe

Believe it or not they are too close together to eliminate the loop :fart:

Oil Cooler bracket mounted to bumper support.

Oil cooler mounted to bracket.

Had I not moved the oil filter to the position off the K member it would have been in the way of the air filter.

Rear view of my oil setup.

Dave, what would happen if you flipped the oil cooler upside down from the way you have it so the fittings were at the bottom? That way you could easily drain it.

No way to fit it all and make it have drainage flow, even if I did invert it flow would be uphill to the thermostat. Or would have to pull the bumper to get to the fittings.

I am gonna remove that 1/4npt plug and install a airhose pressure fitting to take care of drainage. I figure I get almost 90psi of pressure on cold startups so the air blasting out the old oil will not harm anything.

Great pictures, just what I needed to see

Wow!! that's a LOT of plumbing!!!

With the oil cooler in that location will it get much airflow through it, I can't tell from the picture angle if will be sitting in lower opening with the intercooler?

Also, you suggested in an earlier post to go with a smaller cooler, I was looking at the perma-cool 212 (4 pass), is this a decent size for this application??

Can't comment on the 212, just don't know man.

Mine will get some airflow but the temp will be lower than stock oil/water thing can be just due to length of the oil path. While driving the air by the cooler will be changing constantly and effecting the cooling. I really do not have room in front of the IC.

I did have a friend tell me about some used low profile coolers on ebay, -12 Nascar stuff and considered getting one of those. Lots of ways to skin this cat.
