Buy one from ebay. Get a grinder and grind one side down. Thats what iv done works a treat

Agreed, none are going to fit straight on it's too tight. I'm sure whoever had the greddy one fitted had the bracket spaced out slightly - plus it's bloody expensive.

It's a 3/4" UNF thread you need.

I have a sard sandwich plate and fits a treat, no grinding and no replacing the cheap rubber seals every 10 minutes. They are a bit pricey but do pop up second hand from time to time. Well worth the money!

Sard cooling blocks fit without any modifications, but I think the last time I looked they were about £90 before shipping and tax from RHD, they do crop up second hand every so often, but the time you wait for one you can grind down the power steering bracket with months to spare :haha:

The bracket must need spaced a bit with the sard one to fit without modifying it......

I bought a cheap sandwich plate off ebay and cut a large chunk out of my power steering bracket. Bracket is still strong and got plenty clearance round the plate

Kl, I dont even know what goes from the gauge to the plate all my gauge come with is the red and black wire to power it, I've got no idea what's from the gauge to the plate and how it connects/wires up
