    I've never mounted an oil pressure gauge by the distributor or a water temp gauge in the cylinder head, so I'm going to have to pass you on to someone with more experience for the rest of your answers.

    The location above the oil filter is 1/4 NPT, I believe, so you would need a 1/8 to 1/4 adapter. Check THIS WEBSITE Depending on clearances, you may need to use an elbow or other miscellaneous fittings. The distributor location may be best for you.

    Oh, and yes, oil will drain if you pull the plug above the filter.

    It is Jack, by the way. The "Henry Rifle" screen name is a reference to my great-great grandfather who was a soldier in the 7th Illinois Infantry during our Civil War. Many of his compatriots carried Henry lever-action repeating rifles.
