Hey, where's the best place to tap for an oil pressure gauge probe? I have my water temp in the thermo housing but I'm not sure where to put the oil temp and pressure. They make an adapter for the 13B and 12A but for whatever reason it's not availiable for the REW. Any ideas??

Replace the stock sensor with your sensor.

Max, what size is the oem sensor? The Autometer one uses a 1/8 or 1/4"NPT fitting. I didn't think the oem one was quite that big.

Great, now all I have to find is a 1/8 BSP male to female adapter with a 1/8NPT port on the side. I'll just run down to Kmart and pick one up. Thanks guys. Anyone have a hookup on obscure, hard to find adapters?

Get Garfinkle to make an adaptor out of your old gage. He is in Murfreesboro Tn.

greddy makes an adapter that goes below your oil filter its about 50 buck but way worth it. if you want one its 50+shipping and i can have one for you in about a week.

Quote of my post from above thread:

I stopped in at MARIAH on Friday and got the info I needed, the PORT on the Engine is 28tpi ( not sure if it is BSPT? or Metric?) and tapered - The Nipple on the SENDER is 27tpi NPT. MAZDA uses an ADAPTER 27tpi female > 28tpi male that is already on the OEM sender, so no additional adapter is required. My guess is that MAZDA shares OEM suppliers with FORD for the senders hence the NPT (US) threads.
