You may need a sandwich plate to fit the sensors.

Or a block adaptor for the plug above no.3. cylinder ( mine came from RCMS overnight ).
And swap the OEM oil pressure sensor out to fit the gauge sensor ( above the crank pulley ).

HTH

P.S. Buy a new filter if you go for the sandwich plate.

May I hijack quickly?! I have just bought an oil temp gauge and it comes with the sender etc. Will it fit straight above cyl 3 or do I need the block adaptor, as you just suggested? Thanks!
