    Why do I need a -10AN oil drain for a DBB w/ 1MM oil restrictor ?

    VDO make a small pump much like a fuel pump that will do the job, you can mount it anywhere below the Turbo CHRA height then it can return to the stock port. It has a -10 inlet from memory but with a 45 degree sweep off the bottom of the turbo it should all fit in and miss the runner..

    45 out to a pump then the 90 back in doesn't matter at all ;)

    Why do I need a -10AN oil drain for a DBB w/ 1MM oil restrictor ?

    Wow that's severely restricted as it is! For that fittment I'd even consider a 45 facing out to a VDO scavenge pump then dump it back in to the drain.

    Why do I need a -10AN oil drain for a DBB w/ 1MM oil restrictor ?

    Most DBB CHRA's have 2 x 1mm restrictors fitting just before the Oil enters the actual bearings. (old dbb units had none so would flood badly) Can't really see a reason why a -8 wouldn't work, I have mine plumbed -12 as that's the fitting that came on the Group A pan ;)

    Koni make some nice poly urethane ones, I'm using some Porsche ones now as they're more progressive at full bump.

    I can't stress how Important GOOD quality bump stops are ;) Without them the piston/adjuster on the end of the shock shaft will SMASH itself and the valving to death. :(

    Slight play in wheel when I torque lug nuts

    There is a Spherical joint on the rear upright that's prone to drying out/failure that will give the symptoms you describe. Also check the wheel bearings they're stout but do wear.

    *Update* Video Another Fan Clutch Question

    No shroud and the air falling off the tips of the blades will be noisy. (The Bimetallic strip on the clutch valve isn't see the correct temps coming through the rad so will be "on" longer)

    *Update* Video Another Fan Clutch Question

    It'll have some "stiction" when new and should free up a little in time. If it were locked up you wouldn't be able to turn it by hand. Just DLing the vid now (your vid site is a slow PITA) ;)
