SR20DE Turbo kit and oil fittings

[Kevin J. Hart]

Seems like this is a common occurance from most aftermarket oil senders.  I
know the 2000 convention Eric had is break off and leave a fine coating of
oil all over his rear end, plus conventitely added some rust proventer to
the bottom of the car.  He lost almost all pressure and maybe 3 quarts of
Mobil One somewhere in Arkanasa IIRC.  Then again those roads in AK are
hell.

I thought someone like Ben Rockwell's OEC made a fitting or hanger type
thing to help stop this from happening.  I could have swore I remember
someone talking about it once.  But probaly better thing is to use the
distrubtion block system on the firewall like was mentioned later in the
email.
