can I replace a 0-60psi oil pressure gauge by a 0-120psi? Is the sending unit have to be matched to the gauge?

Yes, they have to be matched.

I bought a used a 0-120psi oil press. sender. It only regesters 35 on the 120psi gauge. I know the pressure is higher than that.
Does someone still sell new 0-120psi sender? It isn't a priority right now though. I still have to find out where my oil drip is coming from.

Hi Ken,

I got my 0-120 Guage from AJP. They have repro new ones.

How about the sender Bob? Did you have to buy one of those also?

I did find out that the rear seal is where the oil leak is coming from.
When I can I will take the engine back to the rebuilder and find out what he has to say about it.

I have overhauled engines before myself and never had one leak.
