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.

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..
