I've hit 90 psi on oil pressure cold, b ut never past that, so 0-100 should be enough. dunno about temp but I figure we run in the 180's so either should do, but u prbly don't need the 120.

As for water temps...a KA (mine) runs in the 178-200* range (F) with the stock clutch fan and all that. Verified via Techtom MDM-100 on the dash. A 240-degree gauge is more than enough.
