mech tach drive question?
Could someone with a mechanical tach drive tell me where the oil pressure sending unit is located? I’m trying to restore the mechanical tach drive a previous owner removed. The oil sending unit is now located next to the distributor, right where the tach drive cable looks to run. Should the oil sending unit be mounted on the driver side of the block?
Any help would be appreciated,
Robert

you just snake the oil pressure line right around it, but be carefull if yours is old, if you get in there with heavy hands you can break it like I did
the good news is that when I got the replacement line from autozone, the accurracy of my guage increased, now the old guage reads even with the new new one i scored the line from
cars out in the lot , let me know if you need a pic
cheers
