i just put a T at the oil pressure sending unit on the back of the block and ran it to the gauge then. it works but those tiny vaccum hoses that come with it never seal right.

install isn't hard. just use plenty of teflon paste and watch out for those damn little leaks that take a day before you realize they're dripping from a tiny hole
