Mine looks nowhere near as fancy as that! Infact it doesn't resemble a T in the slightest!

im running mine inline with the oil line from the oil pump to the block, standard oil pumps will be internal and wont need to have pipe work like mine.

Got my corsa back to work last night, spend a hour or so working on some of the oil lines so i could fit the oil pressure gauge, then tidied up one or two bits....

two videos of it running on the rollers

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WtkoVeE1zZ4
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LE5YgKK738o

this is the first real time the engine has run so taking it easy on the rollers to get it mapped to 5000rpm, sounds sweet as a nut, took it for a quick spin up the road, the noise is awesome! induction noise is so much louder than it ever used to be! exhaust is pretty silent tho which is nice!

videos are taken on my lg secret so excuse the quality
