Prosport gauges

[shanecarew55]

Ive recently purchased 3 prosport gauges all electronic, Boost, A/F mis, and oil pressure. i was wondering if anyone had installed these gauges and could offer some hints on where to tap into the pressure sender for the oil pressure gauge. the threads are different between the car and the pressure sender from what i understand. if anyone has hooked these up and could point me in the right direction it would be great

for oil pressure you'll probably need to get the pressure sender plate to install on the filter housing.

You'll also need the spin-on conversion if I remember correctly, no?

is there any way of hooking it up without getting those conversion parts using the stock pressure sender swith

Ya, tap off of the stock oil pressure sensor. Take out the stock oil pressure sensor, add a bit of tubing (1/4" NPT i believe), then add a Tee, and add the stock sensor, and the prosport sensor ....
