Where to install gauge senders on gen vi
 

I have a gen vi block and I was wondering were I can put the knock sensor for my thunder bolt ignition? I'm swapping it from my old gen iv block where is was attached via a "T" fitting on the water jacket petcock. Where can I put the oil pressure alarm sender? On my gen iv it was right next to the bigger oill pressure sender on the oil filter pad. I don't think there is a spot there on the gen vi. I think there is a spot in the back of the block just below the intake manifold, but I think I would need some fittings to angle it back? Where would I get those fittings?

There is a oil pressure place above the filter pad, I just have a T for my alarm and sender there. You can also read pressure on the back top of the block.

I run a gen 6 in my set up and had to use a 45° fitting and extension so the oil pressure sender would clear the plate and bell housing (using the port at the top / back of the block) I don't know how big your sender is but I was able to go to my local hardware store (Ace Hardware) and find them in the pluming section.
