I just got a tach adaptor for my autometer tach, A/F ratio gauge, and a mechanical oil pressure gauge... Any good sites to show how to install these? Any guidance and/or advice? I will be installing these later on tonight, and frankly Im a little lost on how to do it. Thanks a lot.

First off what yr is your car.. The easies way to install the oil pressure guage is if you have a Romeo Block.. One way to tell is jack up the Stang and look at the unit to there the oil filter connects to. If you have what looks to be a plug at the very bottom then that is where to plug in for the oil pressure guage that also means you have a Romeo block..

Also on another note I would highly recommand to get the copper tubing for the oil pressure guage and to buy some red RTV to sell the threads. Just my 2 cents I just did this last week and learned alot of things.

Thanks. I wasn't going to use the stock plastic tubing anyways. I've got an 04. I don't think that is a romeo block. What about using braided steel lines? Thanks.
