Afternoon all,

My oil pressure gauge arrived in the post today Smile, and I'm now thinking that with one of these: http://bit.ly/H0IumF I could run both a pressure and temp gauge from a single tap into the engine oil.

Does anyone know of any nice spots to thread this into? Pics would be great if anyone has some.

Cheers.

Have you looked into oil filter sandwich plates? Smile

Good shout Big Grin.. Do you happen to know the thread size of an XUD oil filter?

EDIT: Ignore me, it's M20 x 1.5
