HELP asap. what fittings on Autometer gauge???

[joelliott]

I need the fitting sizes to hook up an autometer phantom mechanical oil pressure gauge. I need:

1. the fitting size on the back of the gauge
2. the fitting size I need to hook the AM oil line to the factory oil sender spot

Thanks

Joe, have you inquired if the gauge comes with the fittings you need. It should have the fitting for the gauge and perhaps an adapter or two for the connection on the motor (which is 1/4" NPT). If not, just take your stuff to the home store and piece it together.

Good luck.

thanks again HISSIN50.
Yeah I got form the other post about the block fittinf being 1/4. I was trying to get all the parts needed before I start pullin my old stuff out. his stang is my DD and if I have to make parts runs I have to kinda know in advance so i can do the install at my folks house or a buddies.

The autometer gauges I like are the phantom series. But I might have to go with the pro comp due to the water temp gauges being able to be bought with 12 ft capillary. (for some reason they dont sell a phantom series with 12 ft tubing).
