    Why does every fitting I find NOT work with 1/8" NPT fittings? All I want are some fittings that work with the damn senders so I can put some friggin' gauges in.

    Who's got the hookup on where to find such fittings, or any other ideas for said gauges?

    Thanks,

    Edit* - These are Prosport Performance FP and Oil Temp Gauges

    nice...I wonder if this would work with the tranny line as well? For the fuel line...tap in right after the fuel filter before the regulator, right?

    When I did my tranny temp, I disconnected the stock cooler in the radiator and ran new lines to the aftermarket cooler. from there I just built a "T" on the hot line and went from there. maybe $3 in parts. But my tranny temp probe is 1/8th npt.

    I take it the hot line is the line on the drivers side if the cooler?

    Does anyone know the size of the tranny line, so I can get the appropriate size fittings?

    Thanks,
