where is it going to get oil pressure from the head from?
why dont you return the oil feed you bought and buy a new, longer one and put it where it is supposed to go!

Wrong!!!!!!! WRONG!!!!! WRONG!!!!!! Wrong!!!!!! turbo needs oil from a pressurized source. the head is not pressurized, nor does it see "enough" of a supply.

me thinks you got the wrong kit! call them and see... another option which is what i did, is to use 1/4" brake line bent to fit the contours of the head. works swell! and much cheaper.
