Default Oil Temp Sensor??

Hi guys, I am going to install my gauges this weekend. I was wondering if anybody knows where this goes?





Cheers

You can get a oil-filter adapter plate...but i think the better way is to use the oil galley in the block:

not a rex...but basically the same process.

anyway see if that helps - i got the parts at Ossi Park.

So it seems to be slightly different on my car..





Can somebody please confirm that this is the correct plug? Cheers

No, it's not.

Refer to my build thread for clearer pictures of where the plug is.



In this image you can see me holding the PCV/crankcase rear breather out of the way to get a clear shot of the oil temp sender location, Usually the pcv line runs directly over the top of the sensor's location.



This ^^ shows how far towards the rear of the crankcase the sensor location is.

HTH!
