I just recently did a motor swap in my 97 GST thanks to crankwalk, and I replaced it with a 94 turbo motor minus the turbo. One of the oil lines coming out of the turbo does not match up on the 94 block. Does anyone know how to rig this up? Right now the oil line is blocked, this can't be good. What are my options here, I know the oil has to cool and circulate through the motor somehow.... I attached a pic so you can see what line i'm talking about.

Also, check out the second pic, what are those two things coming out of the thermostat housing?

THanks guys!

is that a water line or an oil line? anyhoo, if it's the front water line, it attatches differently on the 1G's and 2G's. the 1G front water pipe is different because the front water line on the 14b threads into the water pipe, but it goes somewhere else on the 2G.
 
I'm running a T-25 on my 1G as we speak. The water lines are the same. But the oil lines are different. All you need is a feed line from RRE and a 2G drain line from a 2G. Easy as pie.


Later,

I had a FP Big28 on my 1g which is a 2g style turbo. Piping can be a bi*** but it worked out well for me. 1st one if im not mistaken with that setup...
 
The 1g turbo is bigger. You are better off selling yours and trying to find a 1g somewhere used. It shouldn't be that hard.

no, use the T-25, if it was perfect running condition prior to the motor swap. do what 91LaserRS said and order the line from RRE, i just hope you're not a first time customer, because you will be waiting a while :|
