Oil Pressure Sending Unit P/N ???

I'm looking for the GM P/N for the Oil Pressure Sending Unit for later ThirdGen's with the 80psi oil pressure guage.

The dealership sold me one but I just found out it's wrong, they gave me the one for the 60psi guage, P/N 10222130 so we know it's not that one....

I'm gonna take a stab, and ask are you looking for the V6 sender? Because my oil pressure gauge goes to 80 PSI.

Anyone, PLEASE?????

I just came from the dealership where I had them order in a unit from a 92 V6 Firebird, it was less than half the size of the V8 in terms of size and thread The connector was the same though.

What do I use???? I don't want to pay big $$$$ to have my guages calibrated just for this...

Thanks!

Could you gut the V6 sender and put it on the V8 thread? I'm assuming this is for the Firehawk?

Hmmm, I didn't think about that. I wouldn't even know how to get it apart without breaking it. I was told by a couple people who did this swap that the V6 senders were exactly the same size and thread that side by side you couldn't tell one from another. These were Camaro owners however it should still be the same...

No the Firehawk got sold, this is for my 92 GTA.
