Tapless Adapter for Oil Pressure Sending Unit

Any reason why this wouldn't work as a tapless adapter for oil pressure on an R50/R53?

It's about 1/5 the cost of the cravenspeed adapter and only difference I can see is the craven is steel while this is aluminum.

Did that moroso piece work for you for an oil sender?

It did. You just have to make sure you leave the opening at the right spot. I've been meaning to take some pictures of my install - maybe I'll get it to it this week...

Cool. I'd love to see the pics. I'm thinking of adding a oil pressure gauge. After I posted I saw you sold the adapter in the marketplace. Guess you had to buy it twice! Good find. Beats the $50 cravenspeed.

Nah, I found a lot of them on eBay with the idea that others would want one here. Selling the extras helped cover the costs of mine.
