Default autometer oil pressure gauge and greddy block adapter problem!

i've got a electric oil pressure gauge and the greddy block adapter, but the sender won't screw into ANY of the ports on the adapter. from what i can read on the back of the adapter packaging (everything in different language) is that the two smaller ports are 1/8 and the sender male end is 1/8. so, as you can see, i'm a little confused. thanks in advance guys.

Depending on what engine you are running depends on what you need. I know for the obd0 b16a you don't need an adapter. I assume that for all other B-series that this is also true. But for the D16/15 you need a BSP to NPT adapter. That is to screw it into the stock oil pressure sending unit port.

all Bseries need the bspt-npt 1/8" adapter if you are going off the oil sneding unit. im asking about how many ports and what sizes on the greddy plate adapter.

you will need a 1/8 bspt-npt 1/8" adapter... best bet is to run the adaptor to the block and put the sending unit on your fire wall using braided steel line....

really pressurized? i thought there was no need for pressure for oil feeds.

to my knowledge there is enough pressure comming out of the block...so no need for pressurized oil feeds. i have a 3ft steel braided line and have no problems.
