Oil pressure and water temp gauges are connected to sending units on the engine. The water temp sender goes into a pipe-threaded hole in the cylinder head whereas the oil pressure sender screws into a pipe-threaded hole in the oil filter adapter. The gauges also need a 12V source of power; the under dash ignition circuit is a good place. The voltmeter simply can connect to the ignition circuit under the dash also.

Regards, George
