smiths oil temp guage adapter?
 
I have a smiths oil temp guage that I want to hook up to the double oil filter outlet. The guage come with two different size connecters and the oil filter had a 1/2 inlet. Seems to be very common setup for superformances, but nobody seems to have the adapter to connect them. Anyone know where to get one?

For future, I got my parts from http://www.batinc.net/ British American Transfer. They made the oil sender lines for a couple of our SPF's.

fred, I got the parts. I appreciate it, but only problem they are the adapter that I have (came with the guage), so I am needing the one that connects it to the 1/2 npt inlet on you remote oil filter. So it appears I need one of the following:

* 1/2 npt (male) x 3/8 npt (male) or
* 1/2 npt (male) x 5/8 UNF (female)

seems so strange that this is such a difficult part to find, but it has been. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Fred,
If you have the Smith oil gauge, it is not American thread. It is British. You can jam American on, but it might not seal right.Most people do that:eek: .

I am not the one that needs the adapter, I just got rid of the Smith gauges and went with Auto Meter.
