As far as I know, thats what everyone has done for +T's. I don't know the thread size though, When I was going to +T mine, I was going to dive into that once the whole project commenced.

Now that the car is going though, I have tons of leftover parts if your interested Andrew.

Stock B230 oil sender is M14 1.5 straight cut with an o-ring. There is no T fitting for that. 1/4 NPT will thread into block and tighten before bottoming out. Then put a B20 oil pressure sender on the T in place of the B230 one. The B20 one is 1/4 NPT.

Chuck, I was referring to the fact that Nick's R seems to get everyone's vote by default, so if you could pull the front drive shafts and convince people to vote for it in RWD instead of FWD/AWD, it would win.

Break down of what it takes to win IPD by category in my opinion:

FWD/AWD: having the right car to begin with, doing the "right" mods that everyone else likes, and being well known/popular.

Classic: having the right car, condition of the car, NO mods, being well known/popular.

RWD: innovation and execution of mods, being well known/popular

So your definitely in the right category to have a chance at winning. Make sure its got a big impressive looking turbo, thats a basic staple. Use your fab skills to add tasteful details that no one else could. Swedish import models to pose on it maybe?

I'm screwed then. I don't think the wife would go for a car load of models riding down with us. Ha! As far as tasteful mods go I'm screwed there too. LOL. Oh well. I'm definately not "well known" enough either. Maybe I just need to be more "active" during the show.

this is why i never really care if i win that show or not after seeing nicks car every year, its so over done and not my style, but if thats what people want (hella red silicone, ugly wheels) then they wont get it from me

by "tasteful" I guess I meant "cleanly executed." I think its whether things are done properly and cleanly thats important. No home depot stuff, duct tape, parts that don't fit etc...

Also, come to the RSI BBQ the night before to rep the car and meet people.

Quality work is rewarded. Zip ties and duct tape are not. :)
