I have two of these with check valves before and after the tubo (to keep oil from flowing back into the turbo) these are sell priming pumps so you will not need a "scavange tank" Get on the mustang turbo forum and do a seach on oil pumps-lots of information. Rouge is correct, the best way is to mount the turbos high enough you can drain into the pan. You should have been able to do this since you made your own headers. Also note you will need an oil restictor before the tee out of your sending unit. Vipers have alot of head pressure and that will blow oil right past the turbo seals.

Hey Dansauto. From the begining you've been of great help and giving me pretty good advice. Just wanted to thankyou for that.
haha thanks for the info on the RB pump. He's been heaping up his stuff.
Ya My dad wanted a foot side mount kit in that location. Very hard to get it to drain to the oil pan if putting that turbo in that location. I seen a heffner kit using T3 turbos was barely able to do it and even then it was cutting it real close to not draining correctly. Once you put in T4 turbos practically impossible to have it drain correctly from a footwell side mout. Have to cut out that 1" bar frame and relocate it forward more.
The 2nd design I make will definetly be a gravity feed system. Thanks for your input Dansatuo.
