I have an extra drain plug in the upper front of the 455 engine in the area that retains a little oil when draining the oil by removing the stock drain plug. The 1/2 - 20 stock drain plug isn't large enough to drill and tap for a temperature sender. The extra drain plug is larger. I want to drill and tap the extra plug to install the oil temp sending unit. Does anyone know the distance in that area from the pan to the crankshaft? I could measure it but it wouldn't be easy. Hopefully, someone can save me the time and has the dimension. Ken Henderson? Jim Hupy? Anyone?
Thanks,
