Hey guys, who has put a oil temp gauge on one of these motors? Welding a bung in the oil pan isn't really a good option for me, so I was looking for a port in the block that might be free.
Is the port above the oil filter acceptable for a temp sensor? It’s too damn cold out to go crawling under my truck, so I don’t know if that port is plugged or not. I don’t think that the front of the block is tapped, but again it’s too damn cold.
Other options I’m looking into are a drain plug adapter, or a 3/8” NPT manifold on the oil cooler outlet. Where are you folks getting your oil temps from?
