thanks, had to double check, but there is an incline.my cartridge could be rotated more so that my fitting is pointing straight down,but i wouldnt be able to incorporate my wg.i dont this there is much of a possibility of oil puddeling due to the diameter
of the fittings and hoses, and from the way its clocked...looks cosher but i guess we'll find out this week.
indications of "coking" would be black smoke comming from the exaust right?

Why do people keep believing that ----? ::)

The turbo is higher than the oil pan.It will be ok.There is this thing called gravity that will take care of the oil getting into the pan.

Set up looks good.

Has anyone hooked up a MSD 6BTM 5462? is has like 4 wires for the box itsself(orange,black,red,and white). 2 for the knob and 2 that you dont use.I followed the instructions on C-speedracing's site for the wiring and apparently they have a diff. model.I dont have the fat power and ground wire they refer to.when i hooked mine up it would turn over but wouldnt fire.you can see the wires i hooked to the dizzy dangling in the pics.anyone know what i did wrong?

one thing i would definatly do my friend...is unhook your pcv valve and the intake manifold breather hose from the manifold and make sure you have them routed to a catch can...because you definatly dont want boost pressure in your crankcase or you will be re-ringing that geezer motor again...oh dont forget break in period if u just built it..
