I am a novice regarding installation of an oil-volts and water temp gauge for my GTO.

Can anyone advise exactly where on the engine
are the " hook up" points for the Volts,
water and temperature ?

These are electrical gauges.

Appreciate any help

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
