    If this is in the wrong section please forgive me. I got a question for the 2nd generation guys. I have a 2013 dlbc sport wih the v6 and I am looking to add oil pressure and temp guages to my truck. I plan on using a craven speed mount kit. My question is the following: Has anyone used the Prosportguage oil filter adapter plate? Is it good/no good, known issues, anything better I should look at? Thanks in advance. :D

    I use it. I know there are a lot of option out there but it seems to do the job just like all of the others.The four ports are nice because you can mount the sensors how you want them. I'm running oil pressure and oil temp on mine.

    Instructions are simple, screw plate on, and tighten center bolt once you have the plate oriented the way you want it. My only complaint is that you really have to crank the oil filter down on the plate or it will seep a small amount of oil.

    I think that Lucario Runner has that specific plate. That one or another brand, but not the Greddy one.

    If that is the same one as his, he had continual small leaking problems. Hopefully he will chime in soon enough and add the correct info. Might have been glow shift. Damn I cannot remember.

    Greddy also has one, regardless. 3/4x16UNF is what you need for the oil fitting.

    Cool thanks for the heads up. I thought that was the size I needed. Thankyou for the information I wasn't 100% sure about it.
