instructions for boost & Air/fuel guage

Does anyone have instructions and or pictures on how to install a mechanical boost guage and a air fuel ratio guage. I heard you can just splice into the stock guage line, but where? What additional equipment do I need. Thanks, Jeff

You heard correctly......look under the driver side dash above the go pedal and there will be a black vacuum line JACKPOT

You only need a "T" fitting (7/64") if you plan on leaving the stock gauge functional.

I can't help you with the air/fuel guage, but here is a pic of where you tap into the vacuum line for the boost guage.

I am running a electronic boost guage, but you tap into the same line. You will need a T fitting and a rubber boot. Just look uder the dash kick panel above the gas pedal you will se a vacuum line coming through the fire wall.

Do you just clamp down the T fitting with regular steel type clamps? I take it you just cut the line in half, fit on the t fitting with the additional line from the new guage and use steel clamps on all 3 fittings. Correct?
