oil pressure plug
#1

picked up a replacement plug for a 4.6L front cover for the oil cooler line (not used on mine). I am assuming that the tap in the plug goes thru from the large end straight thru to the end inside (same diameter). Is there a mininum size that this hole has to be for an accurate reading? threaded end tap would go just enough into the top portion to secure the adapter for the oil pressure kit. correct?

OK, I used the plug to the left of the oil filter housing just above it. It's where the oil cooler line would plug in. easily accessible. The oil pressure is as follows:
cold at idle of around 600rpm: 54psi
cold at rpm of 2500rpm: 56psi
operating temp (~175F) at idle: 30psi
operating temp at 2500rpm: 45psi
So, given these numbers, I should be OK on the oil pump.
