That should work but you would have no way of telling how much oil pressure you are getting. I have mine setup near my firewall for ease of adjustment. I also tee'd it off after the ball valve with one going to my oil pressure gauge and other to turbo. This way I can adjust it knowing the oil pressure.

Scott, why did you do it like that? Put the restrictor into the side of the block fitting, and then the feedline into the back of the restrictor. That may work, but I'd be worried about that plastic/rubber/whatever **** on the restirictor valve. Not sure if that burning away would cause a leak, but it's def. better on the block fitting.

Also, the restrictor is nickel plated and I'm not sure as to the heat tolerances of that stuff.

You'll have plenty of room for the feedline.
