How to Wire Gauge

I need to know how to wire each gauge to my new LT1 painless wiring harness and a LT1 engine? where does each wire run? All gauges are Autometer and electric

1) Fuel Level
2) Fuel Pressure
3) Oil Pressure
4) Voltage
5) Speedo (I know on this one)
6) Air-Fuel
7) Tachometer (My harness has a white wire that says Tach on it)
8) Transmission Temperature
9) Water Temperature

If you can help with any or all that would be great!

painless harnesses are very simple ive looked into them and talked to a rep. all wires are marked. if you got athe right one to control everything. you have to connect the tach to the dist. the engine comp. has one harness, that goes to the comp. then one goes from the comp to the guages one plug into the back of the cluster.

I have the painless wiring harness in my possession now. What I mean is how do you wire these gauges at all? Not neccessarily into the harness. What do you mean it has a plug into the back of the gauges? I am not using stock gauges?

cut the connectors... you can do whatever you want... I prefer soldering then covering it with heat shrink tubing or quick disconnects
