How to connect 930 oil lines to 2.7 oil tank?
Has anyone else transplanted a 930 engine using the non-turbo oil tank?
I'm trying to decide which oil lines to use, especially regarding the pressure line from the bottom of the block. I'm tempted to use the lines from my non-turbo block since they would seem to work, but I'm afraid that if I re-route the oil from a different place on the block that it could reduce oil pressure in some vital areas. Is there a kit or a thread with a plan I can follow?

After more thought I need to rephrase my question.
I'm installing my SSI headers on my 3.3 and going with my BAE turbo exhaust. Will the 3.3's oiling system be compromised by using the oil pressure line for SSI's?

Many aftermarket header systems (GHL and B&B for a start) require the same oil lines as you use for SSI's on earlier N/A cars.
Don't know anyone that has fitted a 930 without a 930 oil tank though. There's an extra fitting on the 930 oil tank. I'm told 930 and sporto oil tanks are the same, although I've never seen a sporto tank.

Ok, I'll use the SSI oil line.
I won't use the turbo scavenger pump so I won't need the extra fitting on the oil tank.
