ok i cannot find any free ports to run the oil pressure tube to on the engine

please help soon as its a nice day today and want to get this done before it drops back to the 20s tomorrow

*edit* its an 89 305

 

Should be a port where the stock sender screws into on the back deck of the block, directly on the intake mounting surface.

 

is it on the intake or the block?

i see one on my spare block at the top but i thought that may have been covered by the intake on mine. ill check for it on mine tomorrow

why isnt there any other holes for it?


theres another hole near the oil filter besides the stock sensor but theres nothing in it i can stick a piece of wire about 5 inches in. the hole leaks nothing though

 

The stock sending unit screws into the block, drivers side, below the exhaust manifold.
There is a small square plug screwed into the back of the block, right behind the intake manifold. That would be the perfect place for the oil fitting, but it's going to be a lot of fun getting the plug out since there isn't a lot of swinging room between the block and firewall.

 

Huh. Mine was in the port behind the intake, but I have no clue what the PO did. Anyways, my oil pressure gauge is running off the port behind the intake, and is easy to get to without the distributor in.
