Do you have the Kent Moore number? I missed the ebay one.
Thanks,

Hi folks,
We all know to use a special oil pressure switch socket to change the switch. What you might not know is there was a special one made by Kent-Moore that fits our cars without removing the alternator or fuel pump. Mac Tools made one as well, it seems to be a pretty close copy of the K-M tool, I have one and checked the fit on a friend's '63. Sure enough, just take the wire off and you can sneak it in there.
Now that you have the intro, here's a link to one on eBay with a Corvair budget friendly price:

If you miss out, it's a Mac SC40. Be aware there are later versions that are taller, you want the one that the main body is about the same height as the width.
