Oil temp and Oil pressure gauges install..?
I'm gonna be installing an Autometer oil pressure, and oil temp gauge (both electronic). So I was wondering where would be the easy place to install the sensors? I really don't wanna hack up anything to install the sensors. I figured I could find an oil line and splice in with some brass fitings to install the sensors (but which oil lines)? Or I thought about removing the stock oil pressure sensor and installing both the oil pressure and oil temperature sensor there. I figure it would work if I could find the correct fittings for the conversion, because I'm pretty sure the thread sizes are going to be different. Any help would be great and appreciated. thanks..Tony

I just ordered the Greddy Oil filter block adapter that seats right below your oil filter...it has spots where you scre in your sensors for your oil tmp/pressure...Although I have not installed it yet other forum members have told me it works beautifully...

that's what I used...and I didn't have to hack up anything. Made the installation time appx. 30 minutes for EVERYTHING i.e. mounting the adapter, mounting the sensors, running them into the firewall and to the control unit(defi link system) AND smoking/joking/eating .... It was cake with the adapter...
