Pics of Oil feed T??

Hey Im getting ready to install my tubro within the next few weeks. Im doing all the prep work now so I can have everything ready to bolt on so I don;t have too much down time without a car. Can anyone hook me up with a shot of the way they set up the T from the block to the turbo feed. and the connection to the oil pressure sensor?

the T screws into the block after u take out the sensor. Then the sesor goes to one port, I used the bottom. The other port is the oil feed going to turbo. Very easy.

4drcivic2k1 is an unknown quantity at this point
What size are you talking about?

The thread pitch on the oil sender is 1/8 BSPT.

The block is also the same.

The sensor is about an inch across, and has one wire connected to it.

the sensor threads right onto the T. Take the old one to NAPA and get a new brass T. I did. $.50.and its good n clean. It really is alot easier than your making it out to be. Use a thread gauge if u dont know what the size or gauge of the threads are. I don't know what yours is, but my lines may be a diff. size. Not sure if its 1/8 or not. Could be going in the block and thats it. Measure it or take it to napa. They will tell you what it is.

yes. make sure its clean first. thread it in block. then connect the sensor to one end and oil feed goes in the last spot.

^I wasn't too sure about the oil pressure sensor but you cleared it all up for me. I was going to get a GE sandwhich plate but I think I'll just use the T.thanks for the help.

BTW 1/8NPT is not the correct thread for the block fitting. The sensor and block hole is 1/8 BSPT.
