Ok.. Ive got a trsut sandwich plate..
The sensor holes on the plate are massive and are in metric.
I have guages with sensors in 1/8 imperial..
Where can i get a fitting to plug the sensors into the plate.. (ive already been to autobarn, supercheap, earls and pirtek)
And no i do not want to T off oringal oil pressure sender, drill hole in pan or buy a new sump bolt...
:thumbsup:
Thanks guys..

Its the same adapter you'd use to replace the oil pan drain plug. Its on the greddy site somewhere. I used a HKS one. I think they're the same

depending on where your sump bolt is on the sump it may not be problem

its just too messy.. its not something i could live with for the long term.. ...
I am thinking about removing it and making a bun in sump instead...:thumbsup:
where is the sump plug on your motor?
angle to the side near the bottom or what?
if the sump itself will still be lower than the sender with adaptor attached to the sump bolt fitting then you wont have a problem with it getting a bashing
