oil pressure sender

Hey Gentlemen,
Is there any other location other than the back of the
intake that I can install an aftermarket AutoMeter oil pressure sending unit?

Re: oil pressure sender

Pressure port right above the oil filter. That is where the sensor is located on 93 and "early" 94's. May need an adapter, depending on the diameter of the Autometer sensor. I have a mechanical gauge, with a braided S/S line screwed into that port.

The pressure port on a late 94 and up is actually on the top edge of the block, not the manifold.
