Return Line routing

[T5Bird]

Just replacing the return line on my beast and was looking at re-routing them. The Banks turbo sits very close to the inboard side of the return tee and the hose that was removed was in very poor shape because of the heat I assume. I have attached a couple of crude paint drawings to show the existing routing and the routing I had in mind, what do you think?

Normally the return line crossover is routed forward of the turbo yes....I think there is a special T fitting for that in turbo return line kit.....

What you have drawn would be more like the 6.9 engine with the steel line....... are you sure its a 7.3......

I redid all my line when I did my T's haven't had any problems.
I put some shelding around it thought.
