I think itwas Bill D. that suggested = going to a hose shop and having a stainless steel #4 Aeroqup teflon hose made = forthe remote mounting of the VDO electric OP sender and I was wondering where the new = mounting location ended up(by driver's side head or to the rear?), how = it was attached and to what, and how long the hose needed to be.  I'm = assuming that you went male 1/8" on one end and female on the other.  =
 
This is a great idea. My local hose = making place quopted me a price of $12 for a hose up to 18 " in length.  VDO = wanted way more than that and you're getting a swedged fitting on each end. 
 
I'm giving up on my conglomeration of = brass elbows, nipples, and T connectors when I put the new motor in.  I will = still have a brass T in the block so I can use the factory sender(90 GL) which would = give me the option of going to either the side or the rear.  = TIA
