A few questions.

I have a 67' F350 with a 352/np435, 28k, as stock as they come.

1. What would be best for the application, an ammeter or voltage guage? (Might get laughed at for this one)

2. Where is the proper place to install an oil pressure sending unit?

At the moment I only have a Ford Car disc no truck. Car disc shows it going in the oil filter adaptor housing. If you have gauges it will be a big bell shape. If you have idiot lights it will be a small regular shaped one.
It has been decades since I did any auxillary gauges. As I recall most aftermaket gauges are Voltmeter. In a round about way they indicate "about" the same thing (Status of electrical system) I am assuming the Voltmeter is easier to hook up. Would be the same as hooking up a hand held Multi-meter.

That cleared both my questions up, thanks. Don't know how I missed that sender behind the filter...

A Voltage gauge is waaay more useful than an ammeter. Better yet if you have dual batteries cuz the reserve battery is always there in a pinch if ya need to self-jump.

Oil pressure sender? T'ed off the dummy light sender so it maintains the idiot light's functionality.
