Pump for getting oil from turbos to engine!!
Hey guys!!
Im knew here and had a few questions!!
I have a 2003 Silverado with Twin t-57 Turbos mounted behind the headers.
What is the best kinda pump to use to get the oil from the turbos back to the motor!!!
We had a surflo 1.5gpm pump on there with 1/2" return and 1/4" feed...
With this pump, the oil starts to leak back into the turbos and blows out of the exhaust!!
Is there a good pump that owuld work better than the one we have now??
We were thinking 4.0-5.0 gpm but just wanted to make sure!!
Thanks alot guys, and Im glad to finally be a member here!!!

For the check valves look here www.mcmaster.com. As for the oil pump, you might try this one http://www.racerpartswholesale.com/mocal1.htm. But I think you have 2 problems, 1 you need the check vales and 2 I think your over oiling your turbos and the pump can't keep up. Turbos don't need much oil. I would put about a .063 restrictor in the feed line to the turbos. This may seem really small, but I have see Jose from Forced Induction on the main board recommend as small as like a .032 restrictor. I did this on an S-10 I built a turbo kit for. I just used a 1/8 brass pipe close nipple and filled it half full of solder with a micro torch, I then drill a 1/16 hole throw it and installed it on the inlet to the turbo. It ran for 10,000 miles before I sold it with out any problems.
