Gauge Sensors

Gauge Sensors: the small parts that make your gauges tell the truth

A gauge is only as honest as the sensor feeding it. Gauge sensors are the senders that read a physical value at the engine or driveline - oil pressure, boost, or temperature - and convert it into the signal your gauge display uses. Fit one when you're building a new gauge into a dash, replacing a sender that has drifted or died, or matching a sensor to a gauge brand that expects a specific unit. The sensor threads into a port on the block, manifold or line, so the reading you're staring at while the engine is under load is actually coming off the engine and not off a guess.

What's stocked here

This is a focused category: 4 products from 2 brands, Revel and AutoMeter. Prices currently run from $30 to $85, which is the live range for what's in stock right now rather than a standing offer. That covers three different jobs. The Revel VLS Oil Pressure Sensor handles pressure, the Revel VLS Boost Sensor with wiring harness handles boost and ships with its harness, and the AutoMeter ES Temperature Sensor is a 1/8in NPT male short-sweep replacement unit for temperature.

How to choose

Start with the reading you need, then match the sensor to your gauge. The Revel units are built around Revel's VLS system, so they make the most sense if your gauge is part of that family - and the boost sensor arriving with a harness saves you sourcing wiring separately. The AutoMeter piece is a replacement temperature sender with a stated 1/8in NPT male thread, so the deciding factor there is whether that thread and short-sweep spec matches your port and gauge. In short: buy by function first, then by the fitting and the gauge it has to talk to. If a listing doesn't confirm the thread or connector you need, call before ordering rather than guessing.

What else you need with it

Sensors rarely go in alone. Look at Electrical Accessories for connectors, wiring and mounting hardware to finish the install cleanly. If you're building out the cabin at the same time, the wider Interior section has the rest of it - Racing Seats, Shift Knobs with 152 options, Quick Release Levers, and Audio Systems are all in the same aisle.

Fitment help and ordering

These listings don't carry vehicle fitment data, so the sensor's thread size, connector and gauge compatibility are what you verify against your setup. If you're not certain a sender matches your gauge or port, get fitment help by phone at 813-535-5801 or through contact us before you buy. Every order ships free, and Affirm and Katapult financing is available if you're spreading the cost of a larger build - see financing for details.
