#188688 There's a pre-existing oil passage in the head that needs to be tapped and plugged. It's at the passenger side of the head on the exhaust side. Should be a 1/4" NPT tap and plug, IIRC. Make sure to use some sort of thread sealant otherwise it's going to leak oil just like nearly every other LS/VTEC and CRVTEC out on the road...

You also have to drill a hole in the side of the head, but I'm not sure where or how deep or anything.

#188717 you dont have to drill aything on the head for your oiling system,

you take an 1/8th in pipe tap, tap and plug the small vtec oil galley hole on the bottom side of the head its on the intake side... allmost directly inline with your vtec solenoid,

the for your oil routing you can either tap the back of the block where the oil press switch is or you can get a sandwich plate, and then you tap that line into the big 1/2 in pipe plug (i think thats the right size) on the back of the head rite near where you pluged it, it is a bigger allen head plug, but if you do not have an exterior oil line on a ls/b20vtec something is not right!

#188737 one good oil line is enough, your ecu could cause the prob. your describing... what ecu are you using?
