Smiths mechanical oil temp and pressure lines
 
Where do the SMITHS mechanical oil temp and oil pressure gauge lines run into the 427FE?

Thanks

The oil temp probe goes in the front of the Aviaid pan on the driver's side. The oil pressure line is attached to a port on the remote filter adapter.

cannot fit up front
 
Well I dropped the engine in last night, and on my FFR frame the front of the oil pan is 1/2 an inch from the front cross member. Not enough room for the sensor!

Now I don't have the trans set and angle finalized, will the sensor sit/angle above below the crossbar when final alignment is made? If not I will need to find another location to drill into.

Any thoughts? There is plenty of room on the side of the pan but I don't want to have to drill/tap into the pan if I don't have to.
