External WG :hittiing oil dipstick

[dalatinromeo]

So I'm installing my FP 3150 this weekend, and I'm at the point where I'm mounting my Tial 44 WG onto the turbo but the oil dipstick is in the way.

I've read you can bend the line do you bend it forward toward the radiator or towards the engine?? Is the line flexible enough to bend but not break. I took the bolt the holds the line to the block. Is there anything else to do in order to start bending the line?? Any tips to perform this without breaking the line?

I bent mine towards the driver side of the car. Unbloted and removed the dipstick completely. A few trips back and fourth from the car to the vise until I finally got it where it needed to be, and I bolted it back in.

I bent mine also. Seems to work fine.

I bent mine also. Seems to work fine.

Same here.

1. Pull it out and bend it a little, then put it back in to see if it was enough.
2. Repeat.
