I got the 13g on my 2g and i was just wondering if it was safe to dye grind the holes on the lower oil line from my t25 to make it fit on the 13g? it looks like i would have to grind down the sides of the mount also to make it fit
 
yes, it will be fine as long as you are not doing it on the car for the fear of getting metal shavings in the oil.
 
Take it off the car and clean the crap outta it and ensure that metal shavings are not going to be pushed into your oil, other than that it'll be cool.
 
That's exactly what I did to make it fit my 16g. I just put some tape over the oil return hole then took a dremel and ground it into an oval shape. Use a gasket to help judge how much to grind out. I didn't completely remove the return tube because the seal on the oil pan can be tricky. Just taping over the hole kept all the metal out. Just make sure to clean the flange and tape off before removing the tape.
