I have no idea how to set up gauges. I have the Classic kit that came from RCR. It has speedo, tach, volts, oil pressure, water temp, and two fuels.
I am getting the ford pulse modifier from Classic to mate the speedo to the Ricardo.
The tach, volts and fuel I can handle (I think).
Here is a picture of the sending units that came with the kit. On the left is what I think is the water temp sender? It is huge. I think I can get a smaller one? Since I am using a front mounted pump, I plan to weld a bung into the pipe that leads from the radiator into the pump and measure temp there.
The second from the left (bell shaped) is the oil pressure sender? I guess I can put it in the line going to the oil cooler. Does it matter where in the oil system it should go?
I don't know what the other fittings that came with the kit are for. Anybody want to enlighten me?
I also figured I would get an oil temp sensor and put the sender in the line to the cooler also.
What seems really silly is that the LS7 has an oil pressure sender in the valley cover, but I don't know of any gauge I can use to take advantage of the signal.
Am I on the right track?
