Default 1600 Crossflow turbo help please

Hello! I'm George and I'm new to this site, I'm looking for some assistance with making my crossflow into a turbo.
The main thing im stuck on is where do I take an oil feed?
And can I keep my 32/36 weber and fabricate an air tight box to fit on top of it?
Any help would be brilliant, I'd like the most simple set up using as many original parts as I can. Thanks in advance!

Take the oil feed from the oil pressure switch, and no to keeping the weber,not a pressurized carb. Find a single feed like the turbo SU type, much easier to fabricate intake as well.
Good luck.

Thankyou, that's helpful!
Is there any carb you would recommend?
And will the oil return be ok to go straight back to the sump?
