still getting used to thinking in fractions of an inch... Nope, Evan is the engineer me, I'm a quality control manager at an aerospace machine shop I take care of most of the paperwork associated with jobs aswell as the inspection. I also get to do all the bitch work - cleaning parts, tapping holes, deburring, cutting stock, cleaning CNC machines, etc (ever been showered in sharp metal chips? It's like having gotten into a fight with a herd of pissed off wild cats) |

Holidays means people work short weeks and take vacations. Also I'm the eager one and unfortunately I lack the skills to get this done by myself. And the people that do have little faith in the 240 crowd (i.e. they're cheap broke lowballing flakes). So IT WILL GET DONE but I can't say when and in what numbers. If someone (that means you Evan) can provide me with a blueprint or CAD model I could try bribing a machinist to set up one of the CNC machines. |

Thats kinda what I got going on..
What PROGRAM JUAN?! 3 1/8 NPTs. 1 for factory sensor, 1 for aftermarket sensor, 1 for oil feed for turbo. the 2 are for the -10AN fittings. Requires oil filter adapter. Should I cad up one of those too? I may need to space the 1/8 NPts a bit more due to the size of the OE sender fitting.. I probably need to add another extrusion outwards. That whole top area can be pocketed on the mill for added bitchin-ness. I need to check the clearance on the oil neck that comes out of the block and adjust the dimensions of stuff. I also need to check the diameters of that neck to see how big the holes need to be and if I need 2 different diameters for that.

We haven't decided if we want to make the oil filter adapter yet since there are many options already out there IF we do, it'd be something special like have brackets/adapters for a fuel pressure regulator/oil catch can/radiator surge tank... etc edit better picture showing details: |

So what design does Mike have for the other side of the block?
How many ports does he have for fittings? Is he going to leave the mid section (oil return) open or O-ring it like the OEM? The AN banjo should be 3/8s NPT on the block side and -10AN for the other side. They're like $5 a piece. This sucks, Iwish I still had my machine shop.

For the love of all holy you guys, do NOT reuse your OE sender. It'd be sad to get such a nice piece like this and cover it with leaky oil in a week.
Buy a real gauge, use it. Throw the OE junk in the trash.
