proper thread type for oil line
What is the proper thread type for the oil sensor in which we use for running oil to the turbo? There's been some debate on this question. Thanks.

1/8 BSPT per z10 engineering's block fitting page.
i have a simmilar adapter on my car, but i have threaded 1/8 NPT threads into the block no problems.

I couldn't find 1/8" BSPT when I needed one (working overnight), so I tapped the block to become a 1/8" NPT thread to accept a -4AN -->1/8"NPT fitting. After tapping the block, I cranked the motor to spit out oil and some metal bits, and did an oil change afterwards.
That's only if you cannot find a 1/8" BSPT fitting
