does anyone know how to hook up an oil pressure gauge?
so to go along with all the other crap that i am aquiring.. i got an oil pressure gauge also from autometer.
now...... it seems easy enough to get it to light up. however... i need to know where to tap into the line so it can read out the oil pressure.
i have to go out and pick up a T-fitting for the line..... i just have no idea where the line connects to the block.
someone with a helms manual help me out here... or someone that has done it before..
thanks ahead of time.

You can use a T like I had to for my old send to the turbo.
You need a 1/8 bspt to 1/8 npt adapter and a 1/8 npt T.
You can buy a tap for 1/8 npt and run the tap in the existing hole (which is what I did) and then go male to male npt from the block to the T.
