What's the Best place to plumb an oil pressure gauge from? Thank you!

Most common/simplest is to instal a brass 'T' fitting between stock sensor switch & block. Plastic or copper line is cheapest, but I opted for one of the reinforced hose kits sold by aftermarket speed equip. suppliers.

That location didn't work on my car. The clutch bracket wouldn't allow it. There is a plug in the block close to the oil filter. I put mine there.

There's a couple more plugs in line forward of that. Assuming they come out, use what's easiest to get to.

On the dyno, I typically use the oil galley plug that aligns with the #2 main for the oil pressure and oil temperature hookup. That location is used simply due to it clearing some of the other dyno hook ups. Any of those ¼”NPT plugs on the oil filter side of the block would be a suitable location to get an oil pressure reading.

Plastic oil lines have to be kept well away from the exhaust system for obvious reasons. If using copper it's a good idea to make a loop in the line for vibration failure resistance..
