53244, Those with HRC turbo, where did you tap your autometer oil pressure sender?
Posted by Kiku, Jun-15-03 02:30 PM
I cant find a "Tee" with one male 3/8" to bolt into the HRC oil feed "T", one female 3/8" for the OEM pressure sensor, and a female 1/8" for the autometer pressure sensor (i think its a 1/8").

What did you guys do?
Thanks for the tips.

I just disconnected the factory oil pressure sending unit and replaced with the Autometer. In order not to throw a cell you have to take the sending unit off the harness. If you need a reducer you can find it at the local hardware store for under $2. I'm not sure of the size though. Hope this helps.

Yup, get an adapter for the oil pressure unit. Hardware store or auto parts store will have them. It's NPT thread. I have an elaborate set up of T's, elbows, reducers, on the back of my block to retain stock oil pressure dumby switch sensor, oil pressure and oil temp.

Yeah, i just got rid of the stock sensor, then got a 1/2" to 3/8" NPT adapter, then a 3/8" to 1/4" NPT adapter at Home Depot, to fit the Autometer pressur sender fitting.

I had teed (tee from Homeless Despot) the stock sender with the Autometer before I happened upon the HRC setup. I just screwed the street tee from HRC into the HD tee.

I had issues with my setup sticking so far out from the block. After 3 months it snapped off, and i had to get the broken piece out of the block.
