Default need help installing electric oil pressure sender

Hey all need some help running into clearance issues trying to install a sender for my gauge

Engine:b18a1 bottom b1 head

Car: 95 integra

5sp

Oil sender for my sunpro gauge doesn't clear the oil filter sandwich plate has been tried but gaskets are no good would prefer a direct to block type set up willing to get a hose made to replace dummy light any suggestions ?

Get an adaptor to turn tge stock pressure sender port to a 1/2npt thread. Use a hose to go from there to a T fitting. Get an adaptor to go from 1/2npt back to honda threads for the stock pressure switch, and screw the pressure sender for the gauge on the end of the T.

Other option is use the hose and stuff, but ditch the stock dummy light sensor and T fitting and use the hose to relocate the oil pressure sender.

I like the hose relocation idea don't really trust t fittings my car is lowered (which I hate) so that t fitting would be put under a lot of stress

You dont need the dummy light even hooked up. Its worthless once you have a real pressure gauge. Just leave the connector unconnected and the light will never light up again.
