oil pressure, temp senders, and it then depends on where you are going to put the senders?

you can fit a t peice under the alternator and use the same plug as the std oil pressure switch, there is also a blanking plug for the oil galleries on top of cyl 3, it's common practice to put oil temp sender in there but you will need an adaptor, not sure of size?

or, you can get a sandwich plate that goes between the oil filter and the engine and put them both on that

the choice is yours
