Subject:oil pressure gauge and temp gauge

Hi Vanagoneers,
I realize this may be an ancient thread covered ad nauseam on Samba and
this list, but I want to install an oil pressure and temp gauge in my
syncro. I was going to opt for the Van cafe kit but it is out of stock so I
want to put together the equivalent. I am thinking a stainless brake line
from gowesty would work using a male M10 x 1  adaptor at the low pressure
sensor port to attach the brake line to and then replicating the other
components for the in the kit. My question is it a mistake to use NPT 1/8
inch fittings in this process? I plan to buy the gowesty oil pressure
relief plug with the built in port for a temp gauge.
Thanks
Rick Koller
