Thanks for the info guys.
I made a plate and welded the pipe into it. The pipe sticks into the oil pan a little and has a oring on the pipe between the plate and oil pan. I also used good silicone and the plate is held in place with 4 self tapping screws into the pan. Been this way a couple years now with no problems. Just be careful when you drill the oil pan to get all the shavings out.
The easiest way is to go to Google and type "competitiondiesel " and your question. Its a better search engine than the board one anyway.

My 97 has a "STORM"... Seems to be the late 97's early 98 kind of thing
How many 12v's actually have the (STORM) blocks I don't really recall ever seeing one. Also the 12v filter head doesn't have the side port like CR or 6.7 like Ron's. The fitting is 1/8th NPT. Also don't combine the 2 drains keeping oil flowing is key. I like GW's idea of the plate over bung in the pan. What turbos are you running?

That's kind of what I figured about the blocks. I haven't encountered too many in 12v's. I will have to double check but I don't think my 97 has one. Sounds like it's about the same odds as finding a 53 block in a 12v.
I'll have to look into that hole punch solution. Seems like another good ticket, anything to avoid dropping the pan or drilling.

Do us a favor and pull up a chair, devote a few hours to READING and SEARCHING.
Minimum....
To the OP- I'm new here and probably read an average of two hours a day on here and still haven't scratched the surface on the wealth of knowledge on this site.
Here's a thread regarding your question. Hope it helps and good luck.
12v twin turbo owners, how did you do your 2nd oil drain? - Competition Diesel.Com - Bringing The BEST Together
Thanks for that and I read all day on here just can't search by phone. And I was at the point of needing an answer to keep building but thanks and the people have helped a bounch!!
There's more information on here than most people know what to do with. If you search Google with the words Competition Diesel in the title of what you're looking for it makes it a lot easier. You'll probably find half a dozen threads on any given topic.
And as you can see by my post count I clearly don't have anything to contribute to this site, I just sit back and op:.
