oil sump

im doing a low mounted turbo set up and i was thinking of using a manual fuel pump to pump the oil up to the oil pan or the valve cover. Anyone think it could work?

let me edit that a lil so you guys know what im talking about.... i want to use the manual fuel pump on my car to pump out the oil that will be sumped from the return line on my low mounted turbo.....

from the reading I have done as of late , I'd say you don;t want to have high preasure . Blow by in the turbo can happen easilly ( apperantly...I am NO expert )

i know thats why i want to put a sump system in, i just don't know if the mechanical pump would pump it out fast enough. I guess i will just have to through a gauge on it and test the pressure when the time comes.
