Idk about the 3.4 but I had to buy a thread adapter by autometer to put my oil psi sender in.

I think i needed a thread adapter. Napa had them.

other then that, probably a socket to remove the old one... nothing major.

USE THREAD SEALANT ON THE SENDING UNIT! (teflon tape)

I think increase. But i don't really remember. Take your OEM unit out, and take it to napa with the new one. (if they are different) they'll set you up.

Use teflon paste instead of tape
