The stock sender is right behind the intake manifold towards the drivers side. You could just remove the old one if you'rem not using it and tap in there.

Other places are on the drivers side above the oil filter. There's also a stock sender there (For electric fuel pumps) so if you're not running a carb, you'll need to tee it there to retain the stock sender.

I believe both taps are female 1/8" NPT
