I added one to mine, I removed the idiot light sensor and attached the gauge stuff there. It is at the back of the engine behind the intake manifold.

You can add a 1/8"NPT branch-T at the location of the idiot-light sending unit (driver's rear of engine block), then screw both senders into the T. Be sure to get an electrical (not mechanical) gauge, since I've had the tube break on a mech. one and sprayed oil all inside the dash! JC Whitney has them for about $45 for gauge and sender.
