Default oill feed b series

I have read in the other topics getting oil feed lines near the vtec solenoid is bad?! is it really that bad? or will it work? is it still better to get oil feed from the block where the sender is!?

Thanks in advance!

vtec sender is bad because the oil pressure there is -----.

its like 50psi at the back and like 1psi at the vtec pressure thing.

just run it off the back

it only pumps out pressure when vtec is engauged.. other wise it just dribbles out..

Yes, they do have it, dont even consider on using that as an oil feed.. it will smoke your turbo fairly quickly, it does not pump out enough oil.. its a 10mm bolt right off the front of the head near cylinder 4.
