oil pressure gauge connection..... I'm using a mechanical oil pressure gauge that I had conncted to that aluminum part above the oil filter. Now I installed a SC and I'm using that connection for the SC oil feed line. Is there any plugged oil path where I can connect the oil line for my gauge?
I don't want to use a t-piece and connect it down there again, 'cause usually to hook up a oil gauge you want to pick a spot in the block which is as far away from the pump as possible which would be the oil pressure sending unit, but I also don't want to use a t-piece here, is there any ๓ther plugged hole in the block?

is the oil pressure sending unit actually required? I know it would throw a code if it would be removed, but can't it be deleted in the PCM? like I said I'm using a mechanical gauge, so the OPSU basically is just there to keep the PCM happy...

so you mean I can just remove the stock OPSU and it won't throw any codes?
that would be cool!
I made me a special 27mm socket today, it makes the removal of the OPSU a snap:
