Default ATS Road Race Pan oil lines

Anybody with the ATS LSX pan know which oil line is the return for the remote filter? I looked on the ATS site but don't see anything. I honestly have no clue if it matters or not but I am close to turning the key after I put fluids in and don't want to take a chance.

Thanks,

It does matter especially if you have a oil filter that has a check valve. The ATS instructions at one time were wrong so make sure you get it right.

The front line is the engine out line, and the rear line with the 1/8" NPT fitting is the return into the engine. By looking at the pressure fitting you might think that was the out line, but it is not.

As Charley says, it does matter, especially if you have an anti-drainback filter..................

Thanks Guy's. I hope I got the later version but I don't know. I don't recall getting any instructions with pan.

That is what we thought. Glad I asked. I am using the CV products and HP6 filter so I don't have a check valve.

Thanks Again
