Vortech SC, t-fitting for oil pressure?

[American_Muscle]

Hey guys

My 01 is supercharged via Vortech SQ.
Last week I noticed that the t-fitting that comes from the oil filter and connects to the oil line for the SC was really loose.
Soon enough it just fell off.
I tried screwing it back in when I noticed that over half of the threaded bolt broke off and was stuck inside the oil filter housing.

Can I get this t-fitting(what size?) separately and what about the housing?

Thanks
Patrick

take the remaining part out and take it to carquest or napa. they should have what you need

That's the problem.

I'm stationed overseas in Germany and I doubt they have our sizes here.

Our sizes? Fords mostly have mm bolts

you'll need a new housing, get one from a Romeo engine out of a 1996 to 1998 or 2001 to 2004 Mustang.
not sure why yours would have had a "T" on it? as the Romeos have an extra port on the housing that you can use for a oil feed line

Really?

I dunno..like I said the Vortech kit probably came with the t-fitting and the previous owner put it in.

So an '01 has an extra oil feed hole?
Where is it located on the housing?
Is there a plug in it?

BTW, anybody know how I could could that broken off piece of threading inside the housing out?
I can't drill it out because I'm afraid I might damage the housing as there isn't much inside to grab.

 

[RandyStinchcomb]

yes on the Romeo's there extra hole, it has a 3/8" pipe plug in it.
if it does not then it could be off a Windsor which has only 1 port(for the sender).

It's probably a windsor.

Because the guy who had the car knew his stuff and I doubt he would go through the trouble of installing the t-fitting if he didn't have to.

Where can I get a Romeo housing?

I'm in Germany so I can't find any stangs on junkyards.

I'd have to order it but where?

Thanks
