I feel like it's in plain sight but I can't figure out where this damn oil pressure send unit goes on my 350 tbi in my other car. I can post pics later / tomorrow but just real quick where should I be looking for this. I noticed a line leading into the valve cover on the right side and it occured to me that I might have to take the valve cover off to get to it, but I definitely DONT want to do that right now unless I have to. Also, I bought a purolator fuel filter and I was about to install it, when it occured to me that it looked like a 50 cent chinese piece of sh*t that belongs on a honda civic so I hesitated to proceed with this endeavor in the hopes I might get a review from one of you guys since it appears to be a lot smaller than the fuel filter that is already on the car right now and may actually therefore be a downgrade (in which case Im taking it back). Should I just go with a different brand on this filter? I wish I had K&N money but right now I don't, so I was curious why this filter appears so much smaller than the one already on the car and recommendations on alternative fuel filters... Also, I found a sensor unplugged and cant for the life of me figure out where it is supposed to be plugged in, but that will require pics which I'll get to later or tomorrow when I'm checking it out again
 
I know the TBI factory roller cam motors are slightly different then the 70's 350 that I have, but I believe the oil presssure sender is still on the back of the block, next to the distributor on the drivers side.
 
Oil pressure sensors can sometimes be found right above the oil filer.
 
The Oil Pressure sender ( for the gauge) should be just above the oil filter. The oil switch( used for choke in carb'd cars, fuel pump in FI cars) is located behind the distributor, driver's side.
 
Ive always had good luck with baldwin filters. I use them on all my vehicles
