Hi
Ive used one of these to supply oil to a turbo.
the 1 in the listing seems to supplied with 2 metric adapters.
this wont do if your oil filter has an imperial thread.
(they are extenders not adapters,male thread 1 end female the other,matching your block and oil filter)
Cant you break into an oil gallery on the pump or block?

What about running a flexi hose (suitable pressure of course) from the block to a position where you can fit a T. Less vibration for the sender(s)
too. A mate of mine had the T snap off from the block of his rally car, spraying oil everywhere - he was initially a bit peeved with me because I did
the wiring and the oil pressure light didn't come on - I quickly explained that the oil pressure switch needed to be earthed to work, not
floating around in mid air!
