Im looking to install an electronic oil pressure sending unit and was looking for suggestions of ways to do so.

I read in an old thread that someone else did what occurred to me and used the port where the sensor is for the idiot light. This is on the front of the engine and right next to the manifold which seems like a crappy location, so I was wondering where others put their sending units?

 

i have my Oil PSI and Temp Senders on a Oil Sandwhich plate

 

I am doing a sandwich plate as well. I have the Oil pressure gauge and the sandwich plate just need to get a few mins of free time so that i can install them.

 

I guess I'll just give up, be a sheeple and do it that way, lol

 

I removed mine and installed a wideband in it's place in my gauge pod.

While I had it installed it was mounted close to the fuse box and had a hose running to it from the turbo feed line.

 

and where did you run the feed ling from? sandwich plate?

edit: double posted

 

nope from the turbo feed, from the head. The spot everyone uses.

 

okay, is that port metric or npt

 

um, I think 1/8 npt

 

cool, I was hoping I wouldnt need an adapter.
