About the only gauge you DON'T need a "sender" for is the voltmeter, since the car's battery acts as the sender.
A SENDER takes a signal from whatever you want to measure, and, in the case of electronic gauges, converts it into an electrical impulse the gauge can measure.
I don't know much about Lamco gauges, but you'd need to lok and see if the kit came with EITHER senders, or some tubing to connect to the places you want to measure.
Once you know that, it's plain sailing.
