oil lines from the single filter setup bolt onto any water cooled k24/k26 center section. adapters are needed only if you plan on retaining the dual filter setup. It's redundant with water cooling. That said, the 1985 KH 5kt has the dual filter and the correct oil lines to bolt to your wx dual filter urq > watercooled turbo.
So:
Dual oil filter oil>WC turbo:
See Tony's parts list +/-
bolt on KH oil lines
reflange stock lines
Single oil filter > WC turbo:
See Tony's parts list +
bolt on single filter bracket and use the lines from
a '86>'91 10vt car
Do know that the single oil filter boss uses a 18x1.50 oil cooler fitting, and the wx stock oil cooler uses a 16x1.50 oil filter boss. So you will need to either adapt or replace the oil cooler as well.
Both filter bosses are bolt on to a WX, and both use the same 100c oil thermostat.
