Geez--this list is starting to sound like a gathering of English sports car buffs (I used to house a classic MG and a Aston-Martin in my large garage with only a single wide door--the door was not a problem since the owners spent so much time fixing their cars, they hardly ever left the garage!).
Anyhow, for the benefit of the other ignorant list members, can one of you explain the acronyms BSPT, BSPP, etc.? It must have something to do with the British 'heh'?

The link you sent is for a BSPP street elbow. The sender is BSPT (tapered threads). I know the thread pitch is the same, but will the tapered threads seal in a (BSPP) parallel fitting? I’ve also seen BSP elbows. Not sure if they are tapered or parallel. I need to research British pipe more, I guess. I did find this one, that looks pretty close. For $7 it’s probably worth a try. https://www.amazon.com/Elbow-Degree-Fitting-Female-Thread/dp/B01M4P10U2/ref=sr_1_16?s=hi&ie=UTF8&qid=1491387086&sr=1-16&keywords=BSP+elbow I could just go with the VDO sender. It has a nice pressure gauge and a red low pressure light, but no buzzer. The buzzer is really needed since I don’t have eyes on the instrument panel all the time.

Street elbow seems to work but it will be tight-ish with the oil filter. https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0B8pEh5lnvP1yV05RZGZDMnRhNm8 Josh _______________________________________________ This list is supported by the generous donations of our members.
