A little no brainer common sense technical advice. Obviously I lack in the common sense. Do not wait till you have the engine painted and installed in the car to remember to remove the plug in the head and install the sending unit. This plug REFUSED to come out and required that I remove the tire and wheel house and progressively drill out the plug, hack saw two slots and remove the plug. Then dress the threads and install the NOS sending unit (thank you Grady Burch). All in all it only took about two hours but just a stupid common sense move.
