yes you could use that but good luck finding fittings for strait thread and then sealing the outside of the filter.

Unless you are running an actual oil pressure guage, forget about some stupid dummy light and just run the supply line straight from it. If you are using an actual gauge try to support the sending unit as too much weight out far can cause brass fittings to crack and you'll be at the same place you started.

yea run a t fitting straight from the oil sender on the block. U only need to have a t fitting if you wanna keep your stock oil light.
