Re: OIL Pressure gauge? (mmuller)
i have a "t" for my LSV oil line...BUT if i have a 3 way joint for oil-line, oil-pressure sensor (oem) and a line for the gauge, will all these connections affect the acutal pressure for the gauge...???

i advice against putting all those connections on the stock oil pressure switch location on the block.they could easily rattle itself out.
they sell distribution blocks, so just run a line to that.
you can take the stock sensor out since you have a aftermarket pressure gauge

be careful when using copper tubing on mechanical guages. mine broke at the fitting going into the gauge and leaked all out inside my car. Luckily i caught it and stopped it up. A few days later it started to leak at the fitting on the back of the block and I was down a qt and a half the copper tubing gets fragile with the pressure fitting on it inside the screw on brass fittings so be careful

can't you get an adaptor that goes on the oil filter area that has oil temp/pressure connections? I think greddy has one.

Re: OIL Pressure gauge? (kur0ryu)
yes i found out that golden eagle has a better one than greddy....group buy is cheaper too...my friend had a greddy one but our local hot rod shop that seems to have all the fittings in the world could not find one that fits so when we calleda GREDDY distbutor, they said they have no idea what the size was, only that it fits the greddy gauge adaptors...
