All i need to know is what size treads go to the back of the block where the oem oil sending unit was... what do you guys use...
im not 100% sure what size it is.. but i know its not a NPT thread, its metric. So just take whatever you took out of there to a specialty place that sells fittings (a hydraulic shop maybe), and they will sell you what you need, just tell them what your trying to do.

are you sure its not a bspp no taper or does it have a taper the oem taped oil sending unit hole... D16 and does any one on here have a adapter like this for sale i am willing to buy it...
It's BSPT like the past posts have noted.
and whats with this:
Think about it, all your motor oil runs through the filter continuously as it travels throughout your motor, all your oil is filtered oil. You will get the same oil from there as you would from another oiling source on the same motor.

Ummm if its feed from the sandwich plate like it was on my other turbo journal bearing one it isnt filtered because all of the dirty unwanted particles shavings and what not go the the oil pan from there it sucks up threw the pump tube and goes to my turbo but if its after the oil filter then it goes threw the filter then in to my turbo.. I am using a 60 trim BB and i want it filtered....
I have another question would it be ok to buy a oil feed line kit of ebay The brass looking one its a + shape would that have the 1/8 British Standard pipe taper
