ZX14 Mechanical Oil Pressure Gauge
Anyone know where to source a mechanical oil pressure gauge or at least the fittings to adapt to the stock oil pressure sending unit opening?

What is wrong with a pipe fitting with a T tied to it. You reinstall the oil fitting so the dash light is off. You then run that clear oil line that comes with the unit, run it up to the dash or handlebar area or wherever you feel comfortable reading the gauge.
I am not sure of the oil pressure switch being standard pipe fitting thread pitch? Sure looks like you can make that dual adapter work is Home Depot and Jegs are waiting.

i did this on mine, just used a 1/8th T. put my oil pressure sender on one side, the stock switch on the other and into the pan on the other.
you can't use the 1/4npt plug on the side, anything you put there will hit the body work.
