Changed my oil today and also installed some parts. First was a oil temp gauge from autometer. I ordered an adapter plate from canton racing that fits in between the block and the filter to screw the sensor into.



Installed


With Filter


Also got a new oem oil pressure sending unit because the old one was dying
Old v New


Interior shot


And the oil pressure works


Thats all! :driving:

Where did you get the black housing that holds the gauges?

Where on Canton's site did you get that filter adaptor for the temp sensor? I looked and could not find it. I will be doing this to my motor when I finish it hopefully soon.
