aftermarket oil pressure gauge

i have a question about installing the sending unit for an aftermarket oil pressure gauge. Next week i'll be installing pillar pod electric trans temp and oil pressure gauges. I was wondering where some of you have put the sending unit for the oil pressure. i did a search and seen that someone had used a sandwich adapter from glowshift. it looked like a good idea, i was just worried about it leaking over time. thanks in advance.

I have the glow shift sandwich oil filter adapter on my V10. Seems to work great. No problems other than getting very high oil pressure readings.

nope I used teflon tape and all seems to be good. Just make sure you get the correct thread size. If you need that let me know. I don't remember at the moment and have to go find the package it came in. My oil pressure is ready really high though for some reason. In the morning when the engine is cold I'm getting 100PSI and warmed up about 75PSI on the hwy.
