Planning my oiling setup for my turbo. 99 Block.

Has anyone used this tee at the sender port of the block? Seems pretty nice, figured I could run turbo feed, oil pressure sender, and possibly oil temp off of it?

1/8 BSPT male thread for block, additional nut to help with cracking etc.
3 1/8 NPT threads for accessories
1/8 BSPT female thread if you wanted stock senderl.

Seems a bit more robust than some of the other tee options on the market?

 

That looks nice! I would not measure temperature off the pressure port, as there is almost no flow there, and the quantity of oil is minimal.

 

Stick to the PRL Tee. I won't like that 2 piece design.

 

It seems just as an additional jam nut, the whole adapter body appears to be one. However, after your comment, I saw the copper shim, so I am not sure which are the sealing/mating surfaces anymore...

 

This is what I have installed. Pretty tight but was able to fit oem sender, -6 oil feed, and aftermarket sender from that port.

part is machines really nicely.

the jam nut allows you to clock it to fit.

should have my car running in a couple weeks to see how it goes.

 

Adds some options.
What is it made of? If aluminum I would avoid.

 

What is the ideal material for these tee's? I'm looking at tee's myself and I thought Aluminium would be stronger than brass in this application, but that's only because I read of so many people saying brass tees break, so I really don't know. Haven't seen much said about aluminium tees.

 

Steel.

 

A quality steel or stainless steel.
