Default Gauge/Vortech questions

I have an AEM UEGO Wideband for A/F, and Xline gauges for Oil temp and Boost that I need to install to go with my Vortech.

1) Do I have to create a new hole/bung before my cats for the Wideband gauge sensor?

2) I'm going to to buy an oil block adapter for the Oil Temp gauge; can I install the oil feed line for the Vortech on the block as well, so I don't have to re-plumb the oil pressure line (BTW, how many lines go out of a typical oil block adapter? I was thinking of using it for an oil cooler as well...)

3) Is this the where I need to hook up the mainfold vacumm hose for the SS box (see pic)? If not, where should I hook it up, and can I tee off the same line for my boost gauge?

1. yes you need to add a new hole for the wideband.
2. Depends on the oil block you buy 2-4.
3. yes you can hook it up right there and T off for the boost gauge.

Thanks muchas! BTW, did you have your car over at Performance Nissan? I could have sworn I saw a decked out Z w/ a playboy bunny when I took my car in for service a few months ago...

No, that's not my car. I'm in south Florida. I just like the Playboy car so it's my avatar.

Check out my build thread and you can see that I am successfully running the feed line out of the oil filter adapter plate.
