That turbo seems very low down, won't he have problems with oil return feeds if its not far enuff above the sump, i.e. gravity wont help the oil leave the turbo and it ends up cookin itself?

Only problem it has blown up a few times since, so glad i didnt but it!
2 headgaskets are used to lower the compression ratio as well!
its still for sale
