Again I would not use a Tee screwed into the front ports, those things have a tendency to crack under repeated stress without much support.

You can even buy this one which is threaded for NPT and not BSPT. Depends on the gauges and send unit you are using.

Or just get the whole relocation kit since the pressure senders are usually pretty large.

Is Tee I would see working but it's expensive

Thank you so much for the suggestions. I believe it is the Standard Subie oil gallery plug. I got this AEM Oil Temp gauge. Still need to wait for gauge cluster, but will update when installed.
