Randy,
It's pretty easy actually. For the boost all you need is a vac hose from the intake. Just "T" it off and your set. (See the last line)
The oil temp and pressure is a little harder. Fine a 12v feed from under the dash. I think I used one from the air cur. swithes. Tap in the 12v line into the back of the gauge, this will go for the temp and pressure. Then the sending wire will need to go to both senders. Depending on where you place them. I ended up going water temp instead of oil. (I didn't like the location of the oil sender. (drain plug)) Pressure of course goes to the same place as the OEM dummy light. (Cooling line housing)
Then you'll need to run a ground wire from the temp and pressure.
All 3 will need some sort of lighting for nighttime. So I tagged a line from some of the other lights in the dash. Here's where it began to get fun. Count 6 wires (Volts for me) into one ground. I found it hard to find a decent ground point. There out there, I just remember where I went.
