    Default Help needed for gauge installation into VB

    Hi all,

    I've got a VB and i'm building a black 202 to put in it. I want to put Autometer Oil Pressure and Water Temperature gauges in it but i'm not quite sure how to wire them up. i know how to wire up the positive and negative wires but I dont know exactly how to wire them up to the motor to get the readings.

    Any help is much appreciated.

    Thanks heeps
    James

    I dont know how you intend to build an engine if you dont know how to connect up those two sensors, temp sender is at the back of the head drivers side, oil pressure sender is on the block near the oil pump and filter.

    From memory look for a blue wire for your oil pressure and light green for temp.

    Have a look at at my site I should have diagrams up there.

    Wires Blah!! thats not scary check out the attached pics of my rewiring my VK & wiring up my EFI 5L
