the cheap way to mount an oil temperature gauge is to make a T between the factory oil pressure switch for the sensor to mount to,
but I don't like this because you are not measuring the temperature of 'flowing' oil.
Pick up the vacuum signal at the test nipple on the intake manifold
so as to avoid the check valves in the factory vacuum lines.
