where can i get add a coolant gauge sensor?

[Diesel Driver]

i bought one of these awhile ago: http://www.summitracing.com/parts/SUN-CP8218/?rtype=10 and im mainly after hooking up the coolant temp and maybe the oil pressure gauge if it isnt too much work ! where can i tap into? a port sumwhere on the head for the water temp?

I dont remember exactly where I tapped into mine, but IIRC I removed the factory sensor on the front of the drivers side head and hooked in the coolant temp (could probably put in a T style fitting if want both) and then somewhere in the back (vacuum pump area) for the oil pressure.

I plan on doing this to mine as well using T's so I can keep the dummy lights. The oil pressure dummy light sender is in the head on the drivers side, between the head and the firewall.
