Re: Oil hole on the back of the block
Yyyeessss, exactly what I was looking for!!! THANK YOU....now I can get every thing I need before I start so I don't have to stop and run to the parts store in the middle of the job!!!!!! Only thing is "mine" only has one, not two.....the oil sender AND the oil filter line are coming out of ONE brass tee block on the back of the block!!! SO now I have to figure how to get my mechanical gauge into the loop!!!

Use this 4-way with a "close", or short nipple into the block. DD eBay Item #361468769649 as an example....$7 bucks! |
