Location of galley plugs?
Location of galley plugs? Can someone help me complete this list? I'm looking for all the block plugs that connect to the oil galley. (I'm adding an accusump and want to review mounting options.)
Here's the ones I know about:
* Driver's side, about 2" above the pan and just behind the front cover (16x1.5mm)
* Driver's side, just above oil filter Y fitting and just in front of the bellhousing (3/8" NPT)
Are there others? Where, and what size?
Thanks!

There are four total.
1) Semi-permanent plug about 2" to the right of the oil pump under front cover.
2) Plastic "dogbone" style plug under rear cover
3) M16 plug on front drivers side of block behind alternator
4) M16 plug on rear drivers side of block above oil filter
Then there is the oil pressure sensor if you want to consider that as a plug.

Hey, that's great, thanks. Do you know if it's feasible to get a -10AN line to the front driver's side M16 if you have the F-body alternator still in place? I took a peek and it looks pretty tight in there...
Otherwise I'll use the fitting by the oil filter.

I tried to put an oil temp sensor in the spot under the alternator and there is practically no room at all. The spot above the oil filter was also very tight. I couldn't put my sensor there either because there wasn't enough room to tighten it down. An oil line might be different though.
Okay. I'm assuming that the M16 are M16x1.5 and need an o-ring seal? I'm going to pull my headers off in the next few weeks and while I'm under there I'll see if a line going there is feasible.
I'm installing and Accusump on an F-body motor with full accessories (A/C, P/S, Alt.) and I want to plumb right into the galley instead of a oil line with a check valve.
