Going to weld a bung into my oil pan for my turbo drain. I had planned to weld it in right above the oil level sensor, but the starter limits how high up the pan I can go. I've got it about one inch above the oil level sensor now. Anyone know if this should be enough? If not I can move it to the front of the pan by the crank pulley. I can snap some pics tommorow if needed. Motor is a 2000 lq4 btw.

 

That's high enough, right where mine is.

 

Thats good news You wouldn't happen to have a pic of your's would you?

 

No I don't, but it's straight above the oil level sensor about as high as I could get it. Oil does not come out of it with the oil to the full mark on the dipstick.

 

I welded a bung behind the AC Compressor for mine.. Turbo drains straight down.

 

are you guys removing oil pan or doing it on truck?

 

I removed mine, but a bunch of guys do it on the truck.

 

Here's some pics






Anyone else see an issue with this?

 

Perfect position.

 

Should this be high enough above the oil level? It looks to be a little lower than where people mount them on the front of the pan
