This may be posted on here and but I cannot find it. What are you guys doing to get around the oil pressure sending unit srt-4 2.4 and the starter location on an older trans ( A413, 568, 555, etc)? Is there another place on the engine for a sending unit?

Thanks!

Plug both of them with a steel 3/8 NPT hex plug. The plugs I used were from autozone and I was able to recess them in the block boss so they don't stick out. I then moved the sensors to another location.

You will also have to use the newer nippondenso alternator with the aluminum case and grind on it a little in one spot and change a bolt to a flat strap in another. I also tapped the block for a 45 degree 1/2NPT to AN-10 fitting in order to use the stock oil return location.

There was an article in the old KC about how to make things fit.

Are the old KC articles still offline awaiting to be ported over the new software? I can't seem to find them.
