Hi has anyone used a oil sandwich adaptor plate on there k11 1999 ? and if so was there room around it to fit a oil pressure switch and oil pressure gauge sensor i have had a look around by the oil filter and there does not seem to be a lot of room around it so i just want to check if anyone has used one before i buy one that it will fit.

Hi i did have a look at that type of thing but the oil pressure switch take off point on the block is realy close to the oil filter and it did not look like i could fit a oil pressure switch and pressure guage sensor there as the sensor is big.
Is the link to one you put in your reply the one you used ?.
No mate this is the one i used, with a fitting on the side & the other on the end that way it deffinately cleared the filter

Theres a fair bit of room is you use the top end of the adapter for the largest fitting
