Well for XMAS I received Mechanical Fuel Pressure, Oil Pressure, and Water Temp gauges. I have the Water Temp and Oil Pressure gauges already mounted in the Gauge and the Fuel Pressure Gauge is mounted in a cup on the cowl. My problem is I am basically a newbie when it comes to anything under the hood and I have little to no clue where to wire them up. I am pretty sure that the Oil Pressure wiring goes somewhere around the Oil Filter, but that is all I know.

If someone could send me pictures of where they need to be wired or give me a good description of where that would be greatly appreciated. Thanks guys!

If any info is needed to augment Steve's stuff, a search will reveal a ton of threads, many of which are quite articulate.

Good luck.

It's out there. I was just searching for about FP gauge mounts and plumbing adapters last night.

I know I've personally flogged the water temp stuff repeatedly in the past.

I bring that up just to let you know the info is there if you need it ASAP.

Good luck.
