LD28 Turbo - Where to Plumb Water Return Hose

Hi guys, another question. For those of you who have turbo'd these LD28's, where did you put your water return hoses? I have been told the bottom of the radiator but it's all sealed apart from the radiator drain. What has other people done?

For a water-cooled turbo (unlike the 300ZX turbo)? Tee the heater return line would be my guess.
