Engine is close to going in (IMG:style_emoticons/default/aktion035.gif) , I have the center console with the gauges which has Oil PSI, Which wasent hooked up before by PO. I bought a VDO oil Temp gauge from pelican with their sender. and I think there is a oil light on dash right? I see the port near the oil cooler on top of the case, how the hell do I get this all working? The PO gave me the dual sender, is that for PSI and dash light? where do I tap into for Oil temp? Thanks guys

Take the large sender with two barrel nuts and it need to go inplace of the oil pressure idiot light sender right next to the distributor. However it won't fit in the hole of the sheet metal. You need to go to Lowes and get a 1/8" NPT brass pipe extension about 2" long and a 90 degree fitting the sender will fit perfect right along side the Distributor.

the oil temp sender goes in the bottom of the engine. You should see a round plate foward drivers side of the case with two 10mm bolts holding the plate in. if it a flat plate with no wire you need to get one that does have a sender in it.
