They are a bit of a b****.... Worth the time however.
I have never had a leak from any of them..

No problem..
I did a couple of these as I hit problems with my install in 2003 on....
Hopefully to prevent the wasted man-hours in research for a second and/or third+ time..
By no means is this the only solution... I hope that if anyone has ideas, pleas post them here.
one of my ideas was to run half the stock return line since i don't have a 1/2 tap, so a 10an hose fits tightly over the first half of the pipe, the second half will be using the fitting and welded to the oil pan
it works so i'm happy
i hope that made sense, posting from a cell phone...

Brian,
What bit did you use to drill the return hole on the crank support plate?
I will need the type and size of drill bit/tap for the 1/2" NPT hole.
I think the size is 23/32 tap bit. Can you confirm this because I know nothing in regards to the tap sizes. Thanks!
P.S. If you can link the part to purchase that would be even better!! (lol2)

Dude, You Do Not want to buy that part... The tap is like $100
Just borrow it from a local shop or have them do it..
The drill comes with the tap...

I was thinking I might have to use a 'T' fitting and plug both sensors into the same 'T'...
Does anyone know the thread pitch and length of the stock oil pressure sending unit?
I need to know this so I may purchase the correct 'T' fitting in order to hook up both sensors. I don't have a second car so I can't take out the sending unit to find out.
I know I need a male (1/8) for the block but don't know the thread pitch for the females into which each sending unit (stock and after-market) will be screwed.
Any help would be appreciated, Thanks!

Why were you tapping the back of the block? The MBSP (Main Bearing Support Plate) is aluminum, you should have no problems drilling it and tapping it. I did mine while it was still on the car. I used an angle drill and a 22/32" bit which had it's shank reduced to fit the chuck of the angle drill. Tapping the hole 1/2" NPT using a t-handle was the easy part.

You should be able to use the stock ones, or fabricate one with this set up..

how thick is the crank support plate? is thread locker enough to seal it or would it need a nut on one side of the crank plate?
