There is an oil galley that can be drilled on the top of the housing for this. I believe this galley is drilled on turbo engines. Give me call if you don't know what I'm talking about. I don't have a picture; maybe someone else does. Ken Powell Bryant, Arkansas 501-847-4721 -------------- Original message -------------- Rusty, I have eliminated all my banjo fittings. You can get the adapters from Summit Racing. Buly Hi Buly, Getting a metric to AN adapter is relatively easy, but it won't fit. The engine mount portion of the CCI mount plate gets in the way of the oil return fitting, so you can only use something very low profile, like a banjo fitting. Another thought would be to build the oil return into the oil filter adapter block, like I believe is done on the FD. My current fitting has surprised me by not leaking, but I don't want to push my luck.

Hi Buly,
 
Getting a metric to AN adapter is relatively easy, but it won't fit.  The engine mount portion of the CCI mount plate gets in the way of the oil return fitting, so you can only use something very low profile, like a banjo fitting.   Another thought would be to build the oil return into the oil filter adapter block, like I believe is done on the FD.  My current fitting has surprised me by not leaking, but I don't want to push my luck.
