Mac,
The DP-104 requires a separate oil pressure transducer. I do not know if the DP-104 comes with the transducer or not, I'll find out.
The DP-104J uses a piggy back spade connector on the OEM oil pressure transducer so the DP and the OEM GMC oil pressure gauge can be
connected. If you connect a DP-104J to an OEM GMC pressure transducer without the OEM gauge connected it will NOT work. Been there
done that!
I intend to order:
1) 4 Gauge Digi-Panel, Model DP-104 (Standard Unit, Universal in Application) which indicates four parameters: Transmission
Temperature - Engine Temperature - Oil Pressure - Battery Voltage
Note 1: I will "T" in a separate oil pressure transducer. This will provide a redundant oil pressure reading that won't be affected
by problems with the OEM transducer or gauge.
Note 2: if you intend to do the same use good quality steel fittings NOT brass. It has been noted here that the brass fittings are
thin walled and can break resulting in loss of oil pressure!
2) Options switch wired to show RV battery voltage.
Regards,
Rob M.

I'm unsure what the difference between the standard unit (DP-104)
at $214.94 list and the "GMC" unit (DP-104J) at 209.95 is. I think
Rob can explain that!
