       YES !  Install the new sender in the "between the cylinders" location. 
 Way easier but still a PITA.  Gota remove that pan which is attached to the 
exhaust flange studs.  Ha !  Good Luck !  I remove the OEM sender, install a 
short pipe and T fitting that will accept the OEM sender and the new sender.  
The pan will touch the senders so you should bend the pan so it will not 
touch.
