does anyone know if you can use the factory gm oilpressure sending unit for an autometer gauge. the gauge if an ultra lite if that makes a difference. If not where have some of you put the sending unit?

 

Mine didn't work with the oem sending unit, but my oil pressure gauge didn't work on the stock unit.

I put the new sending unit exactly where the stock one went on the T-block above the oil filter. I've heard that some are on the rear drivers side of the block.

well i have my stock sending unit down at the oil filter, but it is a tight fit i am doing a retro fit into a 71 nova and the clutch arm is in the way so there is not enough room to put another sending unit and i want to keep the stock one as well. there is no room at the back of the intake either unless there is a special fitting that you can put back there every thing i could think of hasn't fit so far but i haven't tried much so any sudgestions
