Oil pressure gauge for 4KCSQ



I was just wondering if anyone had added an oil pressure gauge to a 4KCSQ. MY 87 just has the 
standard oil temp along with volts in the center console bar graph gauges. During the last trip 
to the pull-a-part, I extracated a set of analog gauges from a non-quat, 4 banger 4K (oil press, 
temp, and volts)and an oil sending unit from a 5cyl 85 CGT. The sending unit has two terminals 
on the back.

My questions

1.	Where can I mount the pressure sending unit for the gauge? Can it go in place of one of 
	the pressure switches on the side of the block? 

2.	And, if I can, will I still be able to hook up the idiot light wire?

3.	Will the sending unit from a 5cyl give the right signal to gauges for a 4 cyl, is there a 
	difference????

3.	Is there a better way of going about this???



Thanks again...

Bill
