So if we had to replace our engine (been following 35Sport's thread here), does anyone have the part number for the upgraded gasket?
Also, here's the thread that explains a lot. Page 9 has some disassembled shots.

Hi Guys,
So i've been reading up on these paper gaskets being a problem and i want to look into monitoring OP. Has anyone installed a OP gauge lately? Is there any advantage or disadvantage going with oil sandwich filter vs block galley plug?
not too many Diy's on the this. Even though this original post was very helpful.
thanks guys

I was thinking of going with this setup. I would custom mount it to look as OEM as possible.

Thanks a lot for this DIY Cliff, installed my guage w/ the glowshift adapter and your grounding trick. Everything worked well and thankfully my oil pressure was very strong never got below 30 and was as high as 124, w/ a cruising PSI of around 70+ at 2k rpms. I'll be taking it on a decent road trip soon so I'll have better data then.

Here's the one I got, it's definitely cheap but w/ the grounding trick that VQSmile details it's working well. Only downside is it comes w/ very short wires so you'll have to splice in some longer ones. I just modified the gauge mount clip so I could just slide it into the keyfob pocket on the lower left panel. Out of the way and easy to remove and no drilling or cutting of any dash pieces.
