im in the middle on install just wondering where the best place for oil return line is on the oil pan or if anywhere will do just fine, and also just double checking if putting the oil feel line on a sandwhich plate inbetween the block an oil filter is good placement?

Higher on the oil pan is best and be sure it installed so that the hose will always be angled so that oil will flow. A sandwich plate is perfect for an oil feed line. :thumb:

As above you should go as high as you can and not a 90 degree angle but I read a slight angle like 45 max will allow faster return flow but as short as you can get it.

Also another tip I picked up was heat wrap your return line to protect it a bit more from the heat of you turbo
