Default Turbo Oil-Line Send

Greetings! I am 90% complete in gathering my parts for a my turbo project. One of the few items I still need is a turbo line kit from the block to the turbo. I can probably source out the actual line myself, but I need to know what type of t-fitting to use for the oil pressure sensor and on the turbo itself. The turbo I am using is a Garrett T-3. Is there any universal kits out there that would work? Thanks.

What you need to know is the opening size and thread pitch of the turbo, then the opening size/thread pitch of your chosen T fitting, and lastly, the hole size and thread pitch of the hole you choose to tap into for your oil supply.

You can always use adapters to get the oil pressure sender to fit with the "t" fitting, but in general, you don't want to use adapters on the turbo, or the oil fitting into the block.
