Hello all,

Now that the fury of school and work are beginning to subside for my annual multi-week-vacation, I'm gearing up to continue work on my car. As I reinstall the engine in the coming weeks, I want to take care of the lack of oil temperature/pressure measurement in my car (especially with the 'new' mildly beefed-up engine). My car (a '72) never had an oil temp guage (nor sender to the best of my understanding) but it does have the traditional oil pressure sender and idiot light dealie. I'd like to be able to monitor actual numbers (okay, well not numbers.. perhaps 'variability beyond an idiot light' is what I was gunning for) and I don't know the best way to do this. CB offers this; will this work:

If not, what's the best way of addressing the problem? I have a custom center console that I've constructed that can house the gauges (or I can construct a different place to put them.. such as where the old heater controls are, since I won't be using those anymore..) In any event, placement and size of gauges isn't as important as finding a reliable and efficient way of handling the problem.

Thoughts? Suggestions? I'm hoping to order them in the next 24 hours so they'll be there by the time I get home.

Thanks!
