sensor help

ok im trying to get my engine finished up. its a 350. i need help on which sensors/senders i need for the oil pressure and temp.

keep in mind i have a carb'd motor, a painless harness and im temporarily getting cheap autozone gauges. i do still have the hacked original harness sitting on garage floor if i need plugs.

any help would greatly be appreciated !!

Mike

Do those gauges work with factory sender units or require their own ones?

If mech then you don't need any senders.
If elec need to know if compatible with stock senders; if they are you just use the units from your old engine
