Tonight in attempting to finalize my full VDO gauge installation, I came to the realization that I have no way of attaching my VDO oil temperature sender to the front drain plug of my Moroso 7 qt pain. The pan is threaded 1/2"-20 and the sender has 1/8-27 NPT. The provided adapters are only to adapt to larger NPT holes.
This is what I'm working with:

Basically, I wanted to keep my 2 gauge pillar pod. Oil temperature and vacuum gauges are what I chose for it, and I put all the other gauges in the cluster as they are oriented in the stock piece. I am not super concerned if this is an ideal spot for reading oil temperature.
What I am looking for is an adapter with 1/2"-20 male threads with a gasket and 1/8-27 NPT female threads. I have been searching unsuccessfully for a while now and all I can find are a bunch of adapters for metric oil plugs, or NPT. Does such a beast exist? Or am I going to have to make something myself?
Thanks,
Cale
