Hey guys in sure this has been covered. But where can I run an oil pressure sending unit on my 5.3? Any help would be great.

Does your 5.3 have an oil cooler delete plate?

Check out my build thread on my rusty 71 short bed. I have pics on how to make an adapter out of the stock sender. Works real good and allows you to use the original oil pressure line if you're keeping the factory gauges. https://ls1tech.com/forums/conversio...-c-10-a-2.html Post #26.

I assume you have to drain the oil if I use the oil cooler delete?

You shouldn't have to. But I wouldn't recommend trying to drill and tap it on the oil pan....

U can buy one with a nipple already on it . I think I got mine on ebay.that way I could leave the stock one connected for the ecm

You can take your adapter and tap it also.
