Oil filter sandwich plate...gives you 2 ports one for pressure if you want and another for the temp your after...iff your gauge is showing celi then you need a 10mm sender and if its reading in fare then you need a 1/8 npt sender with poss an adapter to change the thread form on the plate. Any temp sender will do as in water or oil as there the same...hth:winkiss:

cheers for the info the fella that had the car before me took the pressure thing next to the oil filter away and put a bolt there so it didn't have one the cowboy iv put a new one on and as its a n/a iv used the turbo oil pipe screw for temp run it and its all good just wait and see if I got a leek

iff it starts leaking then use a bit of plumbers tape..being carefull not to put any on the nose of the thread so that it cant get into the oil system
