Eaton Install

about the oil pressure gauge, looking at the ford shop electrical manual it looks as if the gauge is a real gauge, but has a pressure switch with a fixed resistance as opposed to a sender...is this right? i was thinking of using differant resistors to see how the gauge responds...has anyone tried this ?

search "gauge" in advanced search, titles only, and read away, now back on topic;);)

Don't waste your time......

Take a good look at the OEM oil pressure gauge. It never moves with an increase or decrease in RPMs. The gauge & sending unit is just a switch.... any oil pressure and the gauge reads normal.

Easiest way to fix it is a real gauge.

Replacement Gauges – Autometer (2 1/16)
Oil Pressure – 4327 includes 2242 sending unit.
Voltmeter – 4391

Recommended you replace both gauges as they are slightly different then the OEM and will be noticeable if installed side-by-side.

I understand bud! It took me since 08' at a slow and steady pace to get mine where I wanted it. Good luck with your setup. I'll probably be at Marty's in the next couple of weeks. I'll be checking our your ride! :beer:

Car has officially been dropped off!!!:banana2::banana2::banan a2: wonderful 4 1/2 hour drive down there but it will be worth it, now comes the worst part, the waiting game

[babbage]

Did you get the rear head cooling mod? I'd suggest this for sure. Also you need a trans cooler with the 4.10's - Cheap insurance

I was thinking about this also but right now not in the allowable spending limit, dont need my wife chopping off leg jr. for anymore money being spent. But i will monitor the trans temp gauge once i get the car back to see if the trans cooler is needed or if im still good for a while, but as for the cooling mod, opted to not do it......
