I kept the oil cooler, so the lines are still there.

I ran the water through my turbo. Not sure how good it is though.

Well I had that in mind to connect the two together, but was just wondering if I could just get rid of the metal tube in front of the motor and just take a plug and block off the one that comes right out of the block. Was just wondering if anyone else has done this ?

Go to the auto parts store and pick up two 5/8" rubber hose caps. Then you can remove the entire metal tube. Will you have to remove the alternator to get to the hose off of the water pump

You using a JB Turo or water-cooled turbo?

Journal bearing. Probably will end up removing the metal pipe and capping it was just trying to see what everyone else did.

if you want a clean look and an easy way to route your turbo oil feed, get the golden eagle sandwich plate and totally get rid of the oil cooler plate.

Do urself a favor and just remove the alternator and get rid
Of the metal tube. Took bout 20 mins and is worth it.
