I want to put a boost gauge on my blown 13B. The sending unit that came with the gauge I bought looks just like the oil pressure sending unit, and is too big to use in the port that Camden said to use for this purpose (see attached picture). Can I mount the sending unit in a different location and run tubing or hose to it?

Thanks,
Rich

i dotn see why not....or at least use a fitting that is the right size that you can use

You may be able to get an adapter, or something to turn it at 45* or 90*, whichever is easier to get to.

But yea, you can put it practically anywhere where you're going to get a boost signal.

is it electronic or mechanical?

Electronic. I just need to know if I can mount the sending unit somewhere else in the engine compartment, and run hose or tubing to it from the blower manifold.

Sure you can,
I have my sending unit on the firewall, with a hose going to the intake.
