Anyone using this? How is it working out for you?

I don't see why it wouldn't work OK (I'm using the Mazdatrix adaptor for the same thing), but make sure your sensors will fit.
Both my pressure and temp senders are 1/8NPT and one of them would require an adaptor to work with the RB unit.

Thanks, I didn't realize Mazdatrix made this adapter as well.

It looks pretty nice, I'll probably try out this one instead.

See this first.

Wow, completely different. That's pretty lame that they changed it!
So did you end up drilling and tapping it or just running an elbow fitting?
Also, I see you bought a new oil pressure sensor, did you leave the stock one hooked up too? Thanks again!

IM VERY INTerested in this, i got some issues with my oil pressure gage and the oil pedestal is leaking (guess the orings are bad).

I plan on getting Mechanical gauges so both of these are good (mazdatrix and RB)

So far I haven't decided what to do...I have the ability to drill/tap and also the necessary 45° elbow- I'm going to decide this morning. It's actually kinda crowded down in the oil pedestal area and I need to determine the best spot for the pressure sending unit.
The sending units came with the new gauges and yes, I plan on having the stock gauges functional as well.
