generally you can't use the original sensors, unless they have the same resistance vs measurement as the gauges are designed for.
from the Autometer site
"Electrical temperature and pressure gauges require the use of a sender matched for the type of gauge in use; the stock sender will only work with the stock gauges. Auto Meter gauges are designed to work with the Auto Meter sender that is included with the gauge"
check with autospeed that the sender comes with the gauge (looks like the pressure one does)
also might want to look at a slightly higher oil temp range. maybe to 140C?
fwiw, there are usually VDO gauges on ebay for $45 new (tho they can be had cheaper) and there are other alternatives, like Pricol etc...
unless you really want the 'Autometer Bling' factor....
