Going to be a bit hard to tell with the "blow by"check. Cold engine, possible CDR valve removed, engine hasn't ran in month...years?? I would look for... and
It's a crap shoot🎯... WAIT light cycled before start, a quick cranking cycle to running, oil pressure comes up and holds around 40...
Sounds like you have / are doing your homework. Not going over the top, plain and simple... Which IMO is the smart line to take. M1123 gets all the goodies to do the job and keep up with most traffic. Top down in summer best way to cruze. Who can do that in a picky up truck, LOL
If I was...
Someone when to a lot of trouble to fit that up in there. Looks a little fishy. I don't think the wiring harness supports one there.
Tug and pull to see what's on the other end,CAMO
Somebody say proper tool ?? Here's a picture of my tool...
Note the 4 little crimping widgets at the center putting the squeeze on the pins. If careful and proper technique, soldering can work in a pinch.
What's in your tool box? CAMO
PACKARD connectors in PICTURES
I am not sure what you have with your connector shown. Might be a new design or a imported knockoff? Now for the real deal pictures.
Overall wiew of assembly. Male, female, boy, girl, cat, dog , inee, outee. YOU decide.
Note the white sleeve that centers...
I was just directing owers to the same page DMV works off of. No means no. A year ago, a buddy down the road , went three time to hear the word NO.
Time to lawyer UP. CAMO
Little heads up... Gauges or sender can be flaky, more important check over ALL the connections. Power and especially grounds. They are a three wire circuit, power, ground and sender. A balancing act of electricity...so to say. Resistive change is just a few Ohms from 0 to 33 more or less...
BUZZ KILL.... DMV instructions

At the information desk... said the word "HMMWV" employee went right to the page. They spell it Humvees.
Easy google. Not so...
Who changed the Sender with What? 🤔
Rule of thumb(y) 10 PSI per 1000 RPM hot. Little more is better. Way more, something not right IMO.
Screw in a mechanical gauge to be sure. Military electrical ones not always so good.
That's one tight engine, CAMO
Also note that the spacer is used with one and not the other cradle. Just saying.
In my set-up... After fussing with this brackets, alternator business, I used the long one to the block.
Running the 60 Amp just made more sense not having to deal with exhaust heat /rusty bolt issues.
Right...
I wasn't changing pad. I got the image he wanted to ditch the old school emergency brake crap? (cant believe...yes I could, he doesnt have the up-grade E brake system. Maybe I figured wrong... first time this week. My bad.
I note: that just pulling the old disk rotor is a problematic. It...
Sorry about the bad PN. Had it marked ??? Now that you say that... the HD one has a tab on it for PS hose I think. 🤔 Don't make me go and look LOL
IMO... If trying to tie into the exhaust bolt "again" I would hunt down the HD support strap. Those angles to the exhaust are a little off for...
The way I did it was to mark the outline of the U-joint yoke in place on the disk. Unbolted and out comes the disk / rotor. Over to the plasma table and cut and save the center. Touch up on the grinder and back in...Done and DONE. It is a centering spacer now for alignment to the U-joint and...
Difficult in California is saying it lightly. You have a lot of time to figure out a plan. Maybe VOTE before the 14th, Sept.
