Oil Pressure Sender

[Curry]

Anyone know the size of the oil pressure sender... or the size of the oil feed on the block? 1/8?

I checked the manual but I see nothing about that or maybe I just missed it?

[DAMON]

do you mean the thread size?

[Curry]

Yes sir forgot that part =P The thread size is what i need.

the head is 1/8" NPT, I know when I had oil pressure/temp gauges on my 5sfe I needed an adapter to 1/8" BSPT... here is directly what zoni sent me when i installed them:

"Yes for the pressure you put it where the stock oil pressure switch is. If you arent going turbo, you dont T it.. just replace the stock one with the gauge one. BUT... you need a converter from 1/8" BSPT (british standard pipe thread) to 1/8" NPT which is the standard we use here in north america. It is different because the thread pitch is different. 1/8 BSPT i believe is 32 threads per inch or something, and 1/8 NPT is 27.
The part you need for this conversion is Autometer part # ATM-2269. you can get it from summitracing.com for less than 15 bucks. Also, other dealers carry similar products to this that arent sold by autometer. those are fine too."

Awesome. Yea I needed to know because im setting the oil feed lines I wanted to make ssure i got the right stuff. So ill need an adapter to go from BSPT to NPT.

Thanks again man.

[DAMON]

[Curry]

Well turns out the kit that im buying already comes with a BSPT fitting so I wont have to go with a converter =D
