You guys are amazing. I'm still a little confused just because wiring scares me, but you've made it just about as clear as possible. I guess I'll have to just dig in a try to figure it out.

My other new concern is the temp sending unit. I have vortec heads on my crate engine, so I guess I have 2 choices. Get the 1/2 sensor turned down to 3/8 or install it in the intake and plug the head hole. Also since I have idiot lights now, my current temp sensor has a different plug end than the gauges sending unit type plug end would originally have. What can I do about this ??
