Just got some gauges... Need some help

[DrK MrK iV]

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.

Hey, thanks a lot for that tach guide! Can you point me in the right direction for the stock sending unit for oil? Thanks!

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.
