... sender is tapped into my Accusump plumbing, but you can install it in several places, depending where you want to read the oil temp.
There are 2 ports on the top of the engine that can accept an oil pressure/temperature sensor.
I've tapped into the oil pan for a customer and welded a bung on the oil cooler for another one.



The gauge ... call me and i can help you with it.



Happy Boxstering,
Pedro

Chris,

I have data from Thundehrill back in Oct. Nov. time frame. Let me take a look at what our pressures were doing that weekend. We are running 10/60 oil, the air temp that weekend was in the mid 70's. We were running 2:06's counterclockwise with the crows nest on Hoosier's.

I know our water temp is rarely over 205. If the oil had been doing something out the of ordinary, I'd remember it
