We've just completed the installation of an oil pressure gauge.
It’s great peace of mind. You know for sure that your engine enjoys optimal lubrication. See pictures at:

Br. REAZ, that's very cool.

Great thing to have,I want one that takes the place of the dip stick sort of a duel function. I think the guy who made them died though.

Very nice.
This was the pre-drilled and then blocked off hole I was refering to in an earlier post.
Its there on my C5 also.

May major concern is making sure the top end of the engine is getting Oil.
Cause 99% of the times its a tiny bit of something blocking flow to the top of the engine that does it in.

Thanks for sharing cool idea.

Nice  gauge setup!

The gauge though would not tell you if the oil pressure to the top end is low.

According to this gauge 25-75PSI with engine at operating temp.

Just a query, is there any real need for an oil pressure gauge on this engine?

Cheers  :)
