Hey guys i did some research for installing a mechanical oil pressure gauge and before i attempt this i want to be assured of my doing.

So im going to have a fitting running from the block into a hose. From that hose to the stock oil pressure sender and then attach a T.. Does that sound about right?

 

Yea that will work the best.

 

Thank you man appreciate the quick response.

 

Idk if this well help or not, but this is how my setup is..Anodized T fitting is threaded right above the oil filter. GL
Blue piece (t-fitting)
braided line (oil sender)
silver sensor to the right (oil pressure gauge)

 

^i have the same exact set up

 

Thanks bro that does help me out.

 

I'm running my oil temp and pressure off of the oil relocation.

 

If ur using a mechanical gauge i dont think u need the oem sending unit. But im not sure if it will trigger the dummy light on the cluster.

 

Oh okay so your saying i dont need the oem oil pressure sending unit??? Just connect the mechanical gauge instead of the unit??

Some one please verify

 

Make sure you're using top notch hoses and fittings. You're running hot engine oil into your cabin. I've always run electric gauges just for that reason.
