Gauges for my 7.3

[BigRigTech]

Where is an easy place to access to put a sending unit for an oil pressure gauge on a IDI?... Should I try to use the stock location? I'm putting a tri-pack gauge pod on my dash with oil PSI, water temp and probably a Pyro. I want all the factory gauges to work as well.

I bought a 95 Dakota 4x4 last night for $200 with a MVI that is good for 2 more months, really nice shape but it needs work for MVI. I'm going to fix it up for my f-inlaw to drive when I'm done with it. I'm going to drive the Dodge and lay my F250 up for 2 weeks to finish the E4OD to ZF 5spd swap, NP205 install and install my gauges and etc....I secured a parking spot in my buddy's garage for my 63 Mercury for 2-3 weeks so I can cripple the beast in my garage and finish it.

There is a port on the drivers side of the engine. It's down near the oil cooler at the back and has a 1/8" NPT thread.

Cool, I actually think I noticed that one day while working on the truck now that you pointed it out.
