That is the number 1 gauge choice to get.
I'll second that. Oil pressure gauge should be the first one you buy.
I'll third it. Do I hear a fourth?
Fourth! Going once, going twice...

Then, if you have a mechanical gauge instead of an electrical one, they did you a favor.

Well maybe I'll get oil pressure and remove the voltage gauge. I don't really need to know voltage, but if I want to, my radar detector will tell me.
Obviously I don't know much about gauges,,, will the sender for an electrical oil gauge go directly into the block (where the allen screw is under the stock sender) or do I need some sort of fitting? Thanks.

Ordered the oil pressure gauge. It's summit brand, so probably not the most accurate, but close enough.

Mech or Elec? I don't think anyone has squeezed the electrical in behind the a/c compressor yet. Most of us running them in the 'correct' place are running mech...

A simple 90 degree elbow or a T-fitting lets you run an electric sender. The stock sending unit is mounted there.
