Well, it's not 11/16 inch. I wonder if the sending unit is 17 mm which converts to .69 inch? I may just have to get a 5/8 -18 die and turn down the sending unit so that it matches the tapped hole and doesn't crack the intake.

I talked to Doug at ERA. I should have done this first I guess. He said he usually does this with a 3/8 inch NTP tap. So, I guess it's back to McMasters.
