Default Who's running a LS next block? Few questions

Can anyone help with a few questions.

2. where did you install your oil pressure sender?

I am not runninng knock sensors. I am sure you could tap the block on the out side and run it like LS2 style.

I am turbo so we used a vacuum block with 1/8th NPT ports for my oil feeds and then tapped that block for the oil pressure sending unit. Had to extend the wires to reach.

The sender needs a positive and a ground. The block acts as a ground so if you move it off the block you will need to add a ground in order for it to read.

OK, so it's not set up from Dart to install knock sensors and there's not a feed for the oil pressure sender?

why wouldn't you run knock sensors? Wouldn't it be just a bit of extra information when datalogging?
