    okay mechanical oil pressure gauge
    -what you do is mount a mechanical gauge somewhere in your car...then attached to that gauge is a high pressure oil line,which connects to where your old oil pressure sending unit went...So when you rev the motor, the oil pressure increases, goes thru the hose and moves the needle up.

    A mechanical oil gauge is not the best to mount in the car guys....

    It even states to mount it outside the vehicle....

    Now you have over 100 degree hot oil at 30-50 psi in your car at all times
    best hope you seal it good is all i have to say..

    it's fine in the car just use copper line. mechanical fuel you can't mount in the car.
