Standard American Oil Pressure Gauges are 240Ω [0 PSI] to 33.5Ω [80 PSI].
Standard European [International] Gauges are 10Ω [0 PSI] to 180Ω [80 PSI].

Re: How add oil pressure gauge?

if your block hole is 1/8 female then a standard grease gun hose will work just dandy, rated way way above whatever pressure your engine is likely to put out and easy availability
