You could put it where most 460s and all later trucks have them, left inner side of the fender near the firewall.

 

I know 85lebaront2! You have been very helpful, and I really appreciate it. But once I decided to keep the stock location (for now due to to connection morphology), I just kind of decided to try an unorthodox fix. My little heat sinks probably won't really work, I know. But I took several temperature readings on the module in stock configuration with a laser. So now I will take several after adding the heat sinks and determine whether or not there is a significant difference (T-test at alpha = 0.05).

 

I set out on a mission the early the smorning to find out why the oil pressure switch is leaking oil. After a quick observation that I didn't see the other day. I found a fairly good size puncture in the top of it, right by the threads. A pretty big hole that will most likely require me to get a new one.

 

Bled the brakes this morning, so now I can stop whenever I want.

 

Fixed my clutch linkage.

 

Got me a pair of tires, now all four match. Two years ago I got a pair of mud terrains (30's) to replace a worn pair (also to help with parking in my mud driveway). Then I had one of the better (old) tires blowout, short on cash I got a pair of 33's from a guy who works at the base auto hobby shop. So for two years I have had 33's in the back and 30's in the front.

Now they all match and I can do some off-roading.

 

I put a set of 2" lift blocks in my rear springs this weekend. I wanted a little more height in the rear when it had a load. I bought new Dorman u-bolts at O'Reilly auto parts that were as thick as the original ones and as long as the ones in the kit. I got the kit some years ago as an open package, on clearance for about $5. I've been wanting to install these for quite a long time, but needed to wait until after I had installed the new front coil springs.

 

Pics or it didn't happen.

 

I'm not going to take any pictures until I wash my truck after the Dump run that I made yesterday.

 

Hooked my oil pressure gauge up, I installed a T so I have two ports for the in dash sender and the mechanical gauge hose, my coil is now crooked to make it fit because of the factory sender being taller but I'm going to swap them both around to fix that.




All that's left to do now with the gauges are the lights.

 

I hope your Sunpro lights are brighter than mine. I've gotten the instrument cluster lights up almost to "acceptable", but the ones in the Sunpro gauges are DIM. And, I pulled one out to see what they are so's I could put an LED in to brighten it up and discovered they are soldered to the wire! Hopefully I'll figure out how to replace them with LED's and I'll let you know.

 

When I get them hooked up I'll get a picture of them at night for you (unlike some people) , I can remove my lights by pushing them down slightly and turning them 1/4 of a turn and they come right out.

Do you have the same gauges that I have or the mini version? I bought the 2" face gauges.

 

I have the mini version, which explains why your lights are different than mine and your oil pressure and temp needles are a different color.

 

I saw a picture of yours a while back, but forgot what it looked like exactly, my memory sucks!

 

I think my memory used to be better, but I really don't remember.
