Has anyone installed a aftermarket oil pressure gauge? I would appreciate any tips where to tap into the block and ideas inside the car too. Thanks - Rob

 

There are 3 galley ports on the front and 3 on the rear of the block.

You will need to adapter to go from the metric thread to a standard 1/8NPT:

Thread out the stock plug and insert this plug, it should then work with any oil pressure kit.

 

Short term memory there OP? You made this thread yesterday.

You can get the adapter cheaper at your local speed shop.

I don't think you can easily get to the galleys on the intake side without taking off the intake manifold. Clearance would be a problem again even if you could. Two are right below the knock sensors and the one in the middle will be close to the throttle body.

 

Sweet. I am going to add a matching Sunpro oil pressure gauge to my Sunpro vacuum gauge

 

yayyy autozone

 

I wonder why an Oil Pressure gauge wan't included on the SS models.

 

Yeah eBay!

I took a look at my block today. What do the galleys look like? Do they look like small round plugs about the size of a nickel with what looks like an allen insert in the middle? I can see 2 under the intake manifold and 3 on the drivers side of the block.
