Blade RRV oil pressure sender boss thread?
What thread type is the oil pressure boss on an RRV engine? ive seen reference that its NPT.
Just want to make sure before i order a hose to mount the DD2 sender which is BSP.
cheers

I dont think it is NPT, 1/8th BSPT rings a bell but its a long time since I had to order one. Its likely to actually be a Japanese tapered thread
which are fully interchangeable with BSPT, as discussed
here hence why I think BSPT is what you need, whereas NPT
isnt interchangeable with either, as mentioned in the "North American" section of the above website.

Whilst we're on this topic, what range should I get for a Blade oil pressure gauge?
ie. what do they generally run at?

Mine used to run at about 5bar @ 6k rpm when hot, and about 2/3bar hot idle, so probably 0-8bar at least
