Ok yall before you say it i already searched...Besides the oil filter cap, where can a oil temp send be installed? Im trying to keep the cap for when i get my oil pressure gauge, so i need another spot, if there is one. Ive heard of guys tapping their oil pan...but that doesnt seem like a good idea to me. So what are yalls thoughts??

Took some digging but found a pic for an alternative spot for ya.

There is a pressure test port on the oil cooler, but its gonna be a royal PITA to get too.

Adam mentioned drilling out and tapping the factor plug to use as an adapter.

I really couldn't tell ya, it looks exactly like my temp senders and nothing like my fuel pressure sender but thats just a guess that its a temp sender. You would have to ask Adam about it. And I would assume either or would work in that spot.
