2113-02-02-02 | MALE BSPT x FEMALE BSPP x FEMALE BSPP
3036-02-02 | MALE BSPT x FEMALE NPT

What kind of oil gauge do you recommend? I like the AEM digital gauge with LEDs around the outside but it's damn pricey. Auto Meter makes many that are less expensive, but I don't want a crappy unreliable gauge. Please post your experiences with different brands.

A 0-100psi gauge should be adequate, right? I can't imagine I'd need the 150psi gauge.

DIY to follow once I get all the parts.

So was it decided that the original fitting was BSP and not NPT? I remember a lot of back and forth a while back.
