oil pressure location

[JimCox]

I am going to add a by-pass oil filter to my 03. Where can I tap in for my pressure, my return is direct to the oil pan?:

1/8" npt fitting on top of the filter head [2 plugs there, take which one you like/easer to get at. both are post oem filter]

thanks Nick I connected a oil line at that point, and no oil would pump out with motor running.

Then your motor is pumping no oil.

or there was something plugging the oil line. did you use teflon tape on the threads?

thanks guys! found the problem. I installed a oil temp sending unit about 3 yrs ago, ( used a 1/8" tee ) when I removed the plug. the extension of the gage blocked the oil connection. remover old sending unit all's well.
