I am looking for some help in installing 2 gauges.
1) electrical oil pressure gauge.
I can't just get teh sandwich adapter and go that route cause of clearance of my headers. So i need to "T" off of the stock area.
2) electrical EGT gauge.

any help would be great, willing to pay, or feed, or both.

was kind of looking for someone that has done it before and can help, at least with the oil pressure. EGT i imagine I have to take it somewhere. But I'd rather not have to take it somewhere ifI don't have too.

EGT requires pulling the exhaust manifold and drilling and tapping it. I have done that before but you'll need to find the proper drill and tap for it. I have never done oil pressure but WKDerf has and he's really good with wiring too, but he's going to be swamped with work until after xmas.

or bring it to us if you are within driving distance.
The oil pressure gauge requires removing the rear most plug on the block next to the turbo and using an adapter (which we have). You can't use the stock location due to clearance issues. We also stock exhaust manifold gaskets just for doing EGT gauges. We TIG weld all EGT gauges in place :)
