I might have the bracket (not using it) and the oil line (if I didn't give it to shady). I have the block off plate. As for the oil feed line, I would go from an oil filter adapter plate and use a custom feed line from ATP Turbo, Vibrant, or ebay.

that bracket is for the original air cleaner assembly, hopefully you don't plan to use that POS

you don't need the block off plate if you intend to tune it with a Cobb AP

hopefully you didnt! i was just talking to shady on Facebook about it.

as for the oil feed line, i was going the route gregs recommended, which was using an oil filter sandwich plate instead of using the t fittings, but when i was double checking the parts list, i could not find the fittings.

anyways could you provide links to the custom parts i would need? not sure if im looking in the right places for these things but im having a difficult time finding the right parts

the sandwich plate that I use is from prosport:

Make sure you get a restrictor for you oil line. I used this one:
http://www.atpturbo.com/mm5/merchant...Category_Code=

You will not need the T fitting if you are running off a sandwich plate like me.

take your oil line to a hose supply store and ask to have oil line made in the exact same lenth as your current greddy in 1/8 npt female thread. then you can buy a .99 cent 1/8 npt male fittings ( problem with the greddy line is it has a very hard to find 1/8 npt thread count) the line and fittings should not cost you more than $30 or so and have it made withing 15 min. easy solution.
