My oil system is just as shown in the picture with two minor differences.

1. The oil line for the turbo comes out of the same block where the
return line from the oil cooler goes in.

2. The oil filter is remotely mounted and I filled it before attempting
to start.

When we checked the runout on the E shaft yesterday the journal by the
failed bearing had the same 0 reading at both ends so I don't believe
there is any taper to it.

Randy

Won't hurt to check the old way as there could still be a taper on the other
end.

We had bit of run out when we chucked the stock end. I am concerned
with that.

Randy,
oil filters have a check valve in them and will not flow backwards. make
sure your lines to the remote filter are connected correct.
