New motor doesnt have a drain plug, so just drill and tap the stainer cover plate and fit the vdo sender? that kool?

doesnt have a T3 oil filler block off plate ?? Less chance of it coming into contact with a rock or something that way.

I have read where if You put a sender in the sump plate it should be to one side so it doesn't interfere with the strainer and pick up pipe inside the engine...
I have a plate with a sender instead of a bolt...
I also have a small bolt on sump where the sender will be protected... its just the sump I have to worry about..!!

Is the type 3 dip stick plate [on ALL 1500 engines] low enough so that the sender is in oil all the time??
