Thread: Noob question, oil feed on front of block?

So why cant i use this ports to feed the turbo?? aren´t they oil?

In the g13b engine on the little suzukis gtis, it´s common to use a unused port like this on the head... i did it, no probs whatsoever...

Will i be robbing oil from the head, or decrease the oil pressure at a fundmental part?

There is a spot you can get oil from on the front of the block (water too if you're curious). It is the same spot the DETs get oil from. You might have to drill and tap it? Although it might just be a bolt to remove.

However, the ones in the red circle I don't believe are attached to any oil gallery with any pressure behind them. I think they just go to the crank case?

Do some searching and you'll find picks of the front of a DE block with all the stuff labeled.

You could drill and tap the block to get the oil, but we found out that cleaning the oil shavings is a lot harder from inside of the block, then to just borrow oil from the back of the block and water from the throttle body.

If you have a short block you can go for it, just as Ben said though, you can't use those holes that you circled.

Ok thx guys... that really seemed oil passage ways... nevermind... thx again...

Exactly, iirc chriscar has a nice write up on the feeds and returns.
