Message	It looks like the oil sending unit threads straight into the oil tree. Has anyone with larger turbos run into clearance issues with the oil sending unit? The oil return hose from the turbo makes it a little crowded. I saw one setup where they had threaded an extension tube into the tree, and then the OEM sending unit into the threaded extension tube.
