1g in a 2g question

[b00St3DgST]

Ok, i just put my 6 bolt motor into my 2g using the same 2g head. i had to stick with the 2g water pipe since i used the 2g head. Well my problem is, i dont know what to do with the front coolant line on the turbo. Im using the t25 right now because of money issues, and i have no place to the the line.

On a 1g the line goes the the place circled in red. On a 2g the line goes to the block somewhere near where i circled in yellow.

Is there anyway i can rig something to fit into my 2g water pipe to accept the water line?

I know this is kinda confusing, but i didn't really know another way to word it.

Is that yellow circle on the block where the turbo gets its coolant originally? For mine, I just went to the hardwarde store and bought some fittings to screw into the water pipe. That picture you took is of a 1g water pipe...is that the one your using, or did you just borrow someones pic?

You could always just block off the fitting in the block with a hardware store bolt and get a good fitting the screws into the water pipe. As long as coolant is flowing, its not that picky.

yes that is a stolen pic of a 1g water pipe. my 6 bolt block doesnt have a place in the block itself to tap into or block off.

I will just do what you said and get a T fitting and tap into the water pipe. what should i use to seal the hole i make around the fitting?

Yep! That's exactly what you should do. My 6 bolt block didn't come with the banjo plug on the block either so I just put a tee in by the thermostat. Let me know if you want me to take a picture tomorrow. -Drew

Here's a picture. Sorry if it's a little blurry but you should get the idea. The tee comes from the thermostat and goes to the turbo and to the oil filter cooler. It should get rid of the problem of not having that banjo bolt on the block.
