what fitting to use w/ aftermarket oil guage??

im tryin to install my autometer oil pressure gauge and the sender next to the distributor. however i'll need a 90* adapter to screw into that hole since the sender wont fit straight down. anyone know where i can get this and what size it is? i thought it would come with the gauge, but it didnt.

thanx

I would check either at a hardware stor or a plumbing shop. They should have it. Maybe even an auto parts store would have one. It shouldn't be too hard to find, you may just have to do a little searching.

BTW, just take the sender with you. Then you'll be sure to get the right thread size.
