^ good spots. I just replaced my stock pressure sensor on the head, since I no longer care if the "idiot" light works any more.

you replaced the "sensor" on the block with an actual sensor, right? cuz the one on the block is just a switch (that comes on at a ridiculously low pressure)

I think that's what he meant by "idiot light" - the one that comes on shortly after your temp gauge shoots past H(if we had an actual gauge) and you snap a connecting rod.
