Cool

Dave,

Tee the boost gauge into your dumpvalve vacuum feed hose. The oil temp is easiest to mount in the sump plug. you'll have to buy a new sump oil drain plug and have it machined/drilled and tapped to accept the sender...provided it's not a huge sender that'll stick out to much!

Dave, if you find out could you let me know as I'll put a section in my site for pre-whatever and import jobs. Should make it useful for everyone.

Cheers,

Nick.
