[QUOTE="ac427cobra, post: 525140, member: 6247"] My temp sending unit was 1/8" pipe tap and the bottom of the cover was no sweat for this piece. Plenty of thickness for a 1/8" tapped hole. Now the return line was a little more interesting!:read: Just above the fill hole was a round "casting history indicator" which added just a slight amount of material (like one thread! Hey, when you only have three, that's a 33-1/3% increase!!!!!:lol: ) I put the AN fitting in very carefully with lots of dope AND teflon tape being careful not to overtighten the fitting and stress the thin walled casting. If the rear end was NOT fixed, I would not feel comfortable with what I did. But seeing there is little or no movement, I didn't see it as a problem. The only thing I don't like about this set-up is the return line is directly above the fill hole and you have to have the plug in when filling otherwise the lube will just run out the fill hole. There are not many more options (that I saw) for the location of the return line unfortunately. :thumbsup: :coolman: :beer: [/QUOTE]
