[QUOTE=hattitude;21118978]I have never done it, but I would suggest putting a "T" in the case where the oil pressure switch goes... That way you will get proper pressure right from the oil pump...

I caught that...
We must have been typing at the same time.... I thought I fixed mine before anyone saw my goof......
I have to admit, I thought, "What the hell is eighteight thinking...????"
That's what made me re-read the first post and I realized I was the one way off base.....
I hate it when that happens...

A shop that sells hose and line fittings and adapters should be able to help. ( Summit Racing etc...) You could try adding a twin port manifold where the oil pressure switch is located and have the best of both worlds.....pressure and temp.

If your concerned about your oil temp, just install a good oil cooler and be done with it. I suggest you look at a Oil Bud. Buy once, cry once. I went through two different coolers before I pulled the trigger on a Buds. I started with the HD cooler that went between the downtubes. Then graduated to a Jagg 10 row mounted on the side. None of those can hold a candle to the Buds. 08 FXSTC.
