Oil sending unit?
I am trying to get all of my factory gauges working on my 1968 F250 Camper Special, got all fixed but the oil pressure gauge. It has a aftermarket gauge but I am wanting to go back to factory gauges. I have called the folks at LMC and they don't have sending unit listed for a 68 360CI, anybody have any ideas where I can get one?

Both are available from Ford, can also be purchased from any auto parts store and there's no such thing as a specific to 360 sender. These same senders fit all I-6 & V8 cars and trucks.
LMC usually doesn't have a clue, because they have no Ford parts catalogs.

Not only 2X Bill but also let me state I'd look at LMC LAST. They are usually the most expensive. For repro stuff look at DC (www.dennis-carpenter.com) 1st. Heck, a lot of the stuff LMC carries they get it from DC.

LMC is a "middle-man" aka "go between" operation, uses the J. Paul Getty method of making a buck.
Despite all the parts listed in their catalogs, they have next to none of it.
When people send in their order, LMC uses their money to buy the parts elsewhere, from other repro parts sellers, auto parts stores and in some cases, Ford dealers.
One reason they're more expensive: When they buy parts from other repro parts sellers, they pass along the extra shipping charges...they incur...to their customers.
People that own these old rolling piles of misery, should have EVERY repro parts sellers catalog, to see what's available and...to compare prices.
