I tend to agree with papajohn. Because I think I used the wrong term when I said the temp gauge creeped up, because it does not creep as much as it immedietly rises, and the oil pressure immedietly falls the values indicated in my original post. I will contact maufacturer since after more testing my temp and oil pressure are not actually changing just because I turn on the lights. It has to be a voltage thing whether a conection, ground, alternator or lack of regulator. I have been over the car inside and out over the last 18 months and have never seen anything like a voltage regulator and I do see a voltage swing under different loads.

Thanks to all and I will keep investigating.
