I think its time to raise the dead (thread) a little.
I just did this mod over the weekend and I love the results, completely stock appearance, and now I get to see my engine's proverbial blood pressure!
Though I must confess in the end I cheated, did like Wes showed, and just ring terminal-ed the oil sender.
And secondly I kinda wish I saved my stocker for posterity and just bought an MM(fake) gauge over eBay, junkyard, or off a member, to operate on, cause its absolutely mutilated now.
Oh and it was spot on that I practiced on the MM one first as you get to make all your mistakes, and you WILL make mistakes unless you're a pro, in which case you don't even need this do-entation.

Are your pictures still available for the sending unit install? Does the current wire have to be cut to connect it to the sending unit?
