Your setup appears to be intercooled. Is it?
http://www.vortechsuperchargers.com/download.php?dir=pdf/manuals&file=4FA218im.pdf
That is the installation manual for a fox body mustang. From that, you will be able to see where the oil feed line is tapped. If it's tapped in according to the directions, you'd just remove the t and reinstall the oil pressure sender like stock. I guess for the return, you could stick a bolt in the supercharger end of the hose and clamp it down. Then just make sure you have secured the hose so it stays up high. As far as getting the mass air hooked back up, it should be on the lower of the 2 pipes going into the fender. You need to figure out a way to plumb that to the throttle body. Or I guess you could get a U shaped hose/pipe and hook the 2 together and it should work.

NP. I'd also give vortech a call about upgrading your current blower to a si trim. They will rebuild it, and change the housing and impeller. Si trim is inbetween a t trim and and s trim. More boost lower and much more on top if you pulley it up.

Start shopping. I got my strim(full kit) and a gt40 tubular for 1k. I'd say if you look around, you'll find one.
