Tried that spot, however sending unit may be to big for it fyi, you can always use where the stock oil sending unit is.

idk why some oil sending units are so big, its so dumb. stock spot will not work, u dont get the proper reading in the head where the stock unit is. there is a thread on this somewhere. best thing to do is, buy a gauge that has a smaller sending unit. Defi ftw.

Stock location is not in the head its in the block near the oil filter, you can use this spot and relocated your sensor to the head port.
