gearhead and others,
Thanks for the information. I have found that this site is frequented by people who have great knowledge, and they have great experience and sometimes wisdom, and the people on this site have refined senses of humor.
My 1960 is a full-flow oil system.
In case you are interested, gearhead refers to these companies:
http://www.jegs.com/ http://www.summitracing.com/ By the way, the holes in my block are 7/8" (NP-14 threads - or close to it). I also checked the male/female ends of the hoses with a tap and die. I assume I can use adapters to 1/2" NPT or to the other other threads on the various relocation adapters (3/4-16 and 13/16-16, for example). Does anyone have any comments on this (for example, does a reduction adapter block anything in the oil journals in the block)? I vaguely recall that the full-flow systems have some sort of valve at or near the hole for the line to the oil filter. If by any chance the line/filter gets plugged, the bypass diverts the oil-flow back through the block - does this sound familiar to anyone (I do not have an engine manual for the full-flow 261)?
I also assume that I could connect the oil pressure sender to a tee fitting on the "in" hose or to a threaded hole that is shown on the top of a few of the relocation adapters. Any comments on this?
Thanks, Tim
