One thing about using it. You have to leave it sit for a few hours for best results.

I got tubes of the stuff for free from work.

I let it sit over night before taking the car out so it should have been long enough. I did turn the car on to park it and let the engine run for a few minutes to circulate the oil but it shouldn't have affected the stuff sealing too much. How hard is it to install a oil pressure gauge?

Not terribly difficult. There is a significant amount of wiring. You have to run the wires through the firewall. The passenger side, behind the battery, has some weird ribbed condom-style gasket where a bunch of wires run through the firewall. I ran mine though there. There are DIYs here explaining it.
