Installing Oil pressure\temp guages

I was wondering if anyone had installed oil pressure and oil temp guages? How big of a project was it? Any suggestions? Thanks for the feedback in advance.

i installed oil pressure gauge. its a pain in the ass but once u know how to get the sender in it takes about 30 minutes. I installed my sender under the turbo in an oil gally plug, someone else may give u an easier one, just dont put it in the plugs on the head or u will get a wrong reading on pressure. temp might just work on the head though in which case the oil temp will be a snap. So on the drivers side of the head there are 2 plugs, real easy to get to, id install the oil temp sender on one of those . the pressure sender, good luck, not fun.

There is a stock oil temperature gauge already (interceptors can read it).
