You need a 1/8 NPT to 1/8 BSPT. Ebay or Autometer have them.

I have my old sender from when I did the SR5 cluster swap, and standard and metric tap and die sets.

The 1/8 NPT die screws right on. The 1/8 BSPT dies goes on fine the first few turns but then feels like it wants to start cutting threads - but I think it would also work.
