Looking to add an oil pressure gauge to my 2007 MCSS I am wanting to add an oil pressure gauge to my 2007 MCSS. Anybody know where to tap one in at? Can you wire an electric oil pressure gauge in with the factory sender on top of the intake??? Would that throw false readings??? Is there a pressure port for a mechanical gauge? Any help wood be appreciated. Thanx

I will have pics of my 2007 MCSS up soon. Those are my wheels in that pic on this thread. I'm still running my factory tires as of now but will go with a wider possibly lower tires in the future. I will get some pics of my 87 eventually. Its garaged for the winter. My 1987 is a silver t-top SS. The interior is gutted. There is no heat, A/C, windshield wipers, radio, backseat, headliner, ect. I'm running a 327 bored .030 over. 10:1 comp ratio. Custom made AFR 195 Competition heads. Hydraulic roller cam 230/236 dur. @ .050 .544/.555 lift cam, stud girdles, rev kit, edelbrock rpm air gap intake, holley 750cfm vaccum secondary customized carb, Hooker super comp headers with no exhaust rite now, all solid motor and trans mounts. Transmission is a turbo 400 built for racing with a stage 3 shift kit, and a TCI super street fighter 3000 stall convertor. Rear end is factory 10 bolt with an eaton posi unit in it and 3.73 richmond gears. Its been lowered 2 inches and is rolling on 17x10 torque thrust wheels in the back and 17x8's in the frt. There are many more things done to this car i haven't listed and i can't remember everything. I've owned this car since i was 17. Used to be my everyday driver until I blew up the 305 in it. Now its my toy and my 07 is my everyday driver.

The 87 Monte doen't run too bad. Still gotta lotta work to do on it. Its one of those cars that will never be done or always be changing. I will get some pics for you guys as soon as this damn southwestern illinois weather clears up. Snowy sleety rainy crap is getting old. Haven't drove my 07 in 2 days.
