Aftermarket oil press guage fitting? Anyone know what conversion fitting is needed to use a traditional (non-metric) elect or mech oil guage in the stock sensor location? Haven't bought a new guage for my t-bucket yet so I can do elect or mech, I already have the conversion fitting for the water temp sender setup. thanks!

I did the same for my Oil pressure gauge..
Since I want to use my stock idiot light for my chevelle. I took the LS1 sender on the top/back of the block, broke off the top, drilled and tapped to the thread size of the Chevelle sender and used it as a adapter. Now I have both the gauge and idiot light.
Equus make a adapter for the 12x1.5mm to NPT.
For the passenger side head water temp. I just took out the plug and drilled and tapped it to 3/8" NPT for the Temp sender. No adapter needed.
