85 Cutlass Salon from 307 to 350 olds (wireing of Rally dash

[patollo]

Hell fellow G body people. I have a question that i would love an answer to. I went from a 307 to a 350. this project has been going on for 8 yrs now, and I'm getting close. I'm having a hard time with the wiring of the rally cluster that is in the car. i don't know witch one is a wire for the oil pressure gauge and what one is for temp. Any pic would be very helpful. Also I'm having a hard time locating the sending unit for both. I went to the local autos store and pick both up, and the water sending unit has the wrong connector on it, and the oil sending unit wont clear the water pump is there an attachment that i need for it to clear the water pump? Any Pics of the wires or how you installed the sending units would be very helpful. I hope that any of this made sense and if it didn't sorry and thanks for your time.
Mike

Thanks for the info on the guide. I see that i need an adaptor for the oil sending unit. I looked up the GP Sorenson number for the Water temp sending unit and the number is invalid. I know i dint have a connector that will fit the one that i picked up.

There is a brass 45* elbow that allows the oil pressure sender to extend away from the intake so that it will clear the intake manifold.
I got one from YearOne since I was too lazy to get one from the boneyard.

since you seem to know what your doing, how the heck did I mess up wiring mine so that the left turn signal makes the seatbelt light flash?

you could just disconnect the wire from your seatbelt. You'll be able to follow the wire under your seat/carpet and there should be some sort of connector to unplug

I think i know what i have to do for the oil sending unit. But the connector on the water temp sender is still wrong. i pulled up the P/N from GP Sorenson that is listed on the Reference manual and they don't have that part number. Dose any one have the gm P/N for the water temp sending unit?

When I got a new temp sender for my car, it came with a new pigtail to splice into my existing harness.
