I have never had to replace my oil pressure sensor but I have read was a pain it is to do. I came across a mod that some of the Corvette guys are doing and decided to do it myself. It made sense for me since I was already swapping in a 402ci.
I used a 16x1.5mm to 1/8" npt adapter and a 1/8" npt to -4AN adapter. You could always go with the -3AN size also.

I made a 'T' fitting out of some brass hex stock I had laying around. The only expensive part of this mod was having to purchase the correct metric tap.



Instead of mounting it on the motor as the Corvette guys do, I opted to mount it to the master cylinder mounting bolt with a SS strap. It was simple and had the added bonus of less vibration and heat.
