More often than not.

.

.the sandwich plate will leak on a rev2 tubby cos it's just too close to the exhaust manifold and gets too hot, warps slightly and leaks right onto the downpipe.

.

.some of the

"name brand" sandwich plates seem to work ok but I tried 2 and sacked them both.

.

.I have my oil temp sensor in a sump nut adapter and oil pressure taken from the stock location but using a braided t-piece to retain the oem pressure sensor and wont vibrate and crack

(braided line).

You can get some

"generic" parts from
www.rspec.co.uk and can T into any suitable sized vac line to plumb it in.

.

.with the EBC, I would give it a vac line all of its own, you will find at least 1 behind the plenum that isn't used and blanked off.

.

.locate all electrical sensors out of the heat as much as posss and not in a place where they will get soaked from the rain.

1 word on sump nut adapters.

.

.get a steel one if you can.

.

.it's easy to snap the brass type when winding them in, it's M12 thread with a 1.5 pitch.

I have an r-spec sump nut adapter, it's brass and I felt it start to snap on the last turn when I cranked it up.

.

.a fkn nightmare for me when it comes time to change the oil!
