no but that might do.
the thing im on about, looks a bit like a large bolt, screwed into the engine block 1/8npt thread, where the factory oil light sensor went, then gave you two femal 1/8 threads to add the two new gauge sensors.
got the gauges, but left this lump in an engine i sold years ago by mistake, looking to wire the gauges back up and fit them to my cosworth

well that failed. sandwich plate is too thin. as when I put it on and do up the extention threaded piece that clamps it tight, it bottoms out before the sandwich plate is tight!
can you get thicker ones then?
or back to the extention T piece? where the oil light sensor on the 4x4 cosworth lump?

That would be great, is it thicker than 29mm then , as thats what ive got and seems thats what most are around thinkness wise.
Think it would need to be a min of 35mm.
