Just because you've seen oil gauges move more doesn't automatically mean they were more accurate.

Thanks for the factual reply. I appreciate your time.
From the first paragraph above; you seem to be saying that my '98 does indeed have a "guage". I had doubted that.
The mechanical oil pressure guages that I've put in my cars always showed quite a bit of movement. Oil pressure was generally between 7-15 psi at idle and maybe 35-45 psi at road speed. It would range higher when cold, and lower when hot. The action of the pointer on my '98's dash doesn't bear any resemblence to that. As far as I can tell...it doesn't ever move at all; except to flick to mid-scale at start-up and drop back at shut-down.
However; it's not that big a deal to me to do the custom job that you're describing. Still; I wouldn't mind seeing a pic of one that someone else sweated through...
Anyone?
Thanks again , Rusty12
