Installing Oil Pressure gauge

[Paul Q]

I'm in the process of installing an Oil Pressure gauge.

Where is the best place to install the Oil Pressure Sender? I assume the best place is somewhere near the oil filter.

Thanks

Unscrew the low oil pressure sender for the light on the dash, and use that hole, yes it's near the filter on the side of the block.

You need an adapter + sender. Thread into the oil pressure switch hole. Get the dual terminal pressure sender so you can maintain the idiot light on the dash. You will have to cut the connector off on the factory oil pressure wire and crimp on an eyeloop.

Bavauto sells the adapter + sender + gauge for about $100

Thanks, I'll give Bav Auto a call.
