oil pressure hookup on Y-block

This may seem like a dumb question, but I can't for the life of me figure out where the oil pressure gauge hooks up to the engine on my Y-Block! I have a 1961 re-manufactured Y-Block and I am running OEM gauges from a 64 truck... if anyone has a picture or can describe the location to me it would be...

Thanks Garbz, I do have a C4 and Lokar makes a cable that will work with an automatic column.

Rusty63, I am not sure the 63 will bolt up the the collar but it sounds like an option if I dont have a better one. Thanks

Steering Column

Does anyone have an automatic steering column for a 64? My F100 has a three on the tree and I just put in an auto trans. No power steering. Or does anyone know if the column I have can be converted?

292 yblock pully question

I am building a 292 yblock for my resto f100 project, and I'm looking to use a double pully instead of the stock single, so I can add AC. Does anyone know if I am going to run into any issues with this? I heard something about needing to compensate with a different flywheel for balaning purposes...

I"d love to do something like this with my 64, but I don't want to get rid of the 64 grille. Does anyone know of a repro grille that does not have the turn signal lights in it? Or has anyone modified theirs after taking the lamps out?? Any ideas would be much appreciated!

Looks like you have a good base to start with. I see a frame all painted up nice already. Yea, the truck originally had a longbed frame, which isn't really the look we were going for, found a shortbed frame online in alright shape (the one you see in the pictures), which will make this a lot easier...

New build with questions about steering on a 64

Just started a 64 f100 build a couple of months ago. I've decided to go with a more stock look and feel. Going to stick with the stock suspension and add a disc conversion. Just picked up a 292 y-block w/ trans for it as well. I am going for more of a resto / mild custom, so I am trying to keep the ...
