M10x1.0

I have an adapter, M10x1.0 male with 1/8 NPT female

Autometer sells these for like $9 apiece, and they only work with the 
pressure sender, so I have 2 extra (from oil and water temp gauges) $5 and 
it's yours.

FWIW, the autometer senders are typically 1/8 NPT, and it is very close to 
M10x1.0. If the recieving thread is aluminum, it should thread in and not 
leak. You'd never be able to go back to the stock sender though, so don't do 
it on your cylinder head. :-)
