    On a v8 you will connect it to the port next to the oil filter

    Oil pressure gauge.....

    ....I have both the oil pressure light and a mechanical
    oil pressure gauge setup.
    If you want pics of what I did, give me your e-mail address.
    Previous post is correct. You have to use the plug next to
    the oil filter. I added a tee to run both.
