Default oil feeds question

I am currently using a tee off the back of the block to feed my turbo, never had a problem with it. I just bought an electrical autometer oil pressure gauge and I need to install the sender. What are the rest of the turbo guys doing to supply oil to both the turbo and the gauge?

anyone use one of those oil filter sandwhich things in this situation? I know there has to be quite a few people running an elect oil pressure gauge with their turbo.

I can get a pic when I get home. I do know people run the sandwich adapters and they seem to work fine as well. Basically what I'm using is a vaccum manifold that I got for around 14.00 from http://www.mcmaster.com. I have a -6an feed line into the distribution block then I have my oil pressure sending unit and my oil turbo feed line with a -3 fitting coming out. Seems to work well.

This is what I used for my oil feed setup. Actually, I used the Flamenco-T oil feed and then just added the extra line a a couple of fittings so that I didnt have that big heavy sending unit stressing the back of my block.

FOrSfEd, do you have the McMaster Part# for your distribution block?
