You will need to add the sensor and the wiring to bring it into the cabin.  IIRC the factory location was in place of the bolt that holds the spring for the oil pressure relief valve on the oil pump.  I added a brass T in the hole on the side of the block, but that means the sensor isn't directly in the flow.  

If you can find an old Coupe GT or 4kQ in a yard you'll probably find a sensor (& wiring).

I have a Oil temp gauge from a 1987 4000q you know the one with the dial for
the diff locks and the Digital Oil temp and volt gauge are all in one.

And my question is where can I pick up the signal for the oil temp gauge on
the motor (1982)

It only has one wire on it for the gauge so is there any place on the motor
I can tap into or will I have to install a new sensor on the motor?
