Heeding the oil pressure switch warnings and also having another person confirm my suspicion that the temp sensor is not in a good place to deliver an accurate reading I made some changes.
This is how the pressure switch is fit on a stock 85

I used just the angle piece to go into the metric to NPT fitting

Installed with plenty of clearance

And temp sensor refit so that it is in the flow of oil and not at a dead end to give a much more accurate reading.

I have a little bit of a rub near lock but if you are turned to lock on a track there are other problems already...
