Boost gauge installed (pic)

Here is my new boost guage setup.

* 2 1/6" "Hiper" Reverse indiglo Boost guage

* 2 1/6" Autometer Black Guage Cup

* T in vaccume line to MAP sensor for Vaccume source

 

 

I just screwed it directly to the plastic part of the steering column. It has a curve on the bracket so it bolted on the corner of the column and doesn't block any guages other then oil pressure.

here are some of them from your yahoo photo's.

 

BTW I like your idea on mounting the BOV in place of the stock flex coupler. I am going to copycat your idea! Where did you tap your vaccume source? I taped my boost guage to the MAP sensor vaccume source. Is that where you BOV source is?

i tapped the map. you can also put a brass plumb fitting on the back of the upper manifold where the little square center screw is. I got one but i haven't installed it yet. I found out when I removed my cat that I do have a blown head gasket because I can smell coolant in the exhaust. So i have to tear down the damn motor and replace them :(
