Oil sender for swap Im looking for a oil sending unit for my swap.
What part is everyone using?
Im seeing the adaptors for a 1/8th NPT tread but there isn't much room for the sending units im finding.
Thanks for any ideas.

The adapter is for the sending unit location behind the intake. Many others use the stock sender and gut it, drill it and tap it for the 1/8npt threads of most common senders. If space is limited consider using 45 or 90 degree fittings to make more space. Another option is to drill and tap the bypass cover just above the filter but that has its own problems with header clearance...

Ive seen the bypass option aswell. And thought about the 90 degree option. but I just assumed there would be a kit for the engines since they are a popular swap. I would like to find find a small sending unit.
I may just run tubing to a mechanical gauge is i cant find a sending unit to fit.
