    No e30s, again :(
    why not tap the feed from the oil cooler feed and just tap the pan for the return
    No e30s again.

    That’s what I was thinking also, what about the port for the oil pressure sending unit? Install a threaded nipple in the block, then a tee for the sending unit, then the oil feed off of the other side of the tee? The oil cooler would be nice but how would you install a tee? Tig weld I guess unless you could find the right fittings to thread something in

    the oil pressure sender is a good idea.

    I thought so, but where is it in an m20? All I am seeing on mine is the level sensor in the top left surface of the oil pan.

    Oil pressure sensor location, passenger side of engine block next to motor mount.

    recommend keeping the oem pressure sensor as well with a tee.
