I would like to relocate the oil pressure sender right off the motor itself. Anyone foresee any problems? I am also going to upgrade to the 88 style sender as well.

It's a little more difficult on AC equipped cars, but it can be done. You'll need a 90 degree street elbow with 1/4 NPT male on one end and female on the other end. You might even need Rodney's fitting to go along with it.

Here's a picture of one that f85gtron did. The AC isn't shown, but he later installed the compressor and it's mounts.

can be done w/ standard pipe fittings...
See my Cave, Oil Sensor
fittings listed may not work for some but tells size(s) etc.

Thanks gents for the informations.

Do it just like the 2.8s were done. a 90 degree fitting, a 5/16" steel line to "wherever you want it" and a female fitting for your sender. I've done it many times. I always put it somewhere that you can just " Lay your hand on it". LOL

Lou, I thought about a gauge but thats just one more thing to go wrong or leak. ha

The plan is just to keep it down low and out of site. The original is just a massive (literally) eye sore.

That is a 45° elbow fitting. Hope this helps.

Sorry, Ron. I thought you used a 90.
