So, I didn't want to spend any more money than I needed too, but I did need to run a boost gauge between the primary and secondary, to see what my primary is lighting at. I already had a boost gauge, pyro, and fuel pressure. I still had my autometer mechanical 0-60 boost gauge, so I didn't have to spend any more money on that, and I still had the old A pillar 2 gauge mount.

After some quick cutting and fitting, here's what it turned out to be-notice anything different?

That looks pretty killer! I may be doing the same thing now that I see hoe good it looks! :thumbup2:

Thanks guys! I gotta admit, it's getting difficult to monitor all the gauges :lmao:

Got the JGS drive pressure filter in today, and I ordered the metal line kit for

it, since I don't have time to run around town and source all the parts myself.

Installed, and works perfectly! Drive pressure guage is hooked up and

functioning now, so all my gauges are done! I have zero plans of adding any more

gauges to the mix-I don't think I could even begin to try and read any more if I

wanted too...

It's not the best sanding job, and I could have spent more time doing it, but I needed the pod back in, so I left it at that...someone with a bit more experience and time with fiberglassing and filling could probably make it a lot more seamless than I did...

Manifold tapped for my drive pressure gauge...

Pay no attention to the slew of wires in the engine bay! I'm not exactly known for my clean wiring jobs on my own vehicles...on someone elses, I'd make sure it looked like factory...on mine, eh, whatever...

Oh, yeah, that's right, the stainless steel line coming off the manifold to the drive pressure filter.

JGS Drive pressure filter. It has a tire valve on the top, with a turn valve on the bottom, that lets you blow it out periodically...also, the small cylinder is retained by a snap ring, so you can take it apart and clean it out also. It comes with two ports, so you could run a drive pressure gauge as well as a regulator/blowoff valve, but since I don't need the second port, I just put an old 1/8th NPT plug I had sitting around in it.

You can just barely see the petcock valve on the bottom...And the front line for my dual feed.
