Re: 7.4 vortec sending unit + electronic gauge...?

I was WRONG about the adaptor for the sending unti.

It turns out that it's a 1/4" NPT for the engine block and 1/8" for the old school sending unit.

The problem now is that thesending unit against the block before you can even get an 1/8 of a turn.....

I bought a couple of different fittings that I'll try when I get time.

One is a short 1.5" straight piece to lift over the casting where it slopes out to meet the lip for the bell housing, and the other has a 30º bend which I hope will let me angle the sending unit towards the passenger or driver side.
