The more important issue is its compatibility with the oil pressure gauge that you have.

What does your gauge supplier recommend?

That, and does it have the required 1/4" NPT male threading to screw into your engine block...

I'm using the vintage Factory Five gauges w/ GPS speedometer. I just looked at the instructions for those gauges and they don't list the specs for the oil pressure gauge. I'm going to contact tech support.

vintage gauges are from speedhut. they have their own oil pressure sender that I believe only they supply. the senders are known to fail over time, but speedhut has replaced mine at least once free of charge. mine failed after around 500miles.

Just talked to Speedhut. If your oil gauge has three yellow wires coming out, the sending unit part number is A-124.
