Oil pressure is either good, or its not I don't see the need to see the pressure read out in exact accuracy, the stocker was fine for me to show that I had pressure and there was no slow drops in it over time. IMO of course.

As long as the factory gauge shows that there is decent pressure, and exact reading isn't too important. On a full race car, yes Id say it is much more important, but for our basic street-able builds, stock one works. So now I gotta go back and look if I can find a good 3rd gauge to get, or just stick with 2 and change my mounting design.

My thinking was that the stock gauges are sometimes slow and do not react fast, so they can mask a flutter or something like that. I dunno.
