I'm installing an oil pressure gauge on a 200 straight six. I know it might be redundant, but can I buy an adapter that will give me another port so I could screw in my oil pressure sensor as well?
Seems that if the old sensor operates on pressure that it would pick up the pressure even if at a 90 degree angle from original.

I'd really like to have the idiot light for my water as well. I've got two choices that I"m aware of to install temp sensors on my 200. At the back of the head where the original is and in the front where the PVS valve is. (That medussa head looking thing). I've had the PVS valve non-functional for a couple of years now and could certainly use it. Question is which would be the better location for the idiot light and the temp gauge sensor. Not really sure which one to use since I'm going to use the temp reading to manually dial in my temp control for the electric fan I just installed. I realize the thermostat is located right there at the PVS valve but as I understand it, water won't be flowing through there until the thermostat opens. Since my temperature sensor for the electric fan is close to the inlet hose at the top of the radiator I'm guessing it would be most logical to install the gauge sensor up front? Wow---just made a long story longer didn't I?
