hey guys, i think im gonna take the first step in my twin build and install my hx40. im pretty sure i got everything under control. i just wanted to know do i need to bleed the oil lines like the injector lines? by barring the engine till i see oil and then screwing it in, or can i just screw the oil line in the top and drain on the bottom and be set?
thanks

It is advisable to prime a dry (new) center section. easiest way would be to just connect the lines, unplug the shutoff solenoid and crank the engine for a few seconds to get oil through it. then plug in the solenoid and flash it up

you prolly wont get any oil by barring or even dry cranking as the pump is spinning too slow, most manufacturers recommend simply pouring a few ounces of oil into the line inlet before attaching the line, hook the line on, then start the engine and let it idle for a couple minutes.

...and ill take it that when you install the second line for the other turbo, you should pour more oil into that line, and then do the same thing?
