Need to source one 

What i have is a dual plane air gap Torque power manifold on a 308 (355) 

I believe the thread to accept the sender is 12 X 1.5 

 

Will need to suit a standard SLR gauge cluster 

 

Any one have the same set up or could you recommend what to use (brand, where from etc)

Cheers

Might be easier to use the original sender with an adaptor?

 

Something like this perhaps.

Yeah definitely an option Mick 

Will have a look around as i have confirmed the thread is 12 x 1.5 

Why they would tap out a manifold in BSP and put 1 metric thread in it for sh1ts and giggles is beyond me

 

Thanks for that 

[mick_in_oz]

If you ask Craig nicely he will send you one that isn't tapped at all and then you can put what you want where you want!

 

Thats what I did with my Single Plane for early heads as I machined it for injection and Bosch Motorsport sensors, as well as the originals.

Manifold is on the engine Mick 

Will be going with the adapter to the 1/8 VDO sender - all ordered so thanks for the option

 

Just seems strange they tap a 308 manifold to suit nothing that matches std holden

 

All good though and another small step to getting this thing fired up - thanks

BSP is not used for any manifold fitting, it's always NPT !!

 

As already mentioned an M12 thread would be to suit a Bosch Motorsport sensor.
