are you looking for where the guage sending units hook to the car? power for the guages? not sure what youre looking for here
just a thought but have you looked at the aeroforce gauges? theyll monitor everything the OBDII does, since we have a fuel rail pressure sensor you dont need anything else and can run 2 add-on sensors (could run oil pressure and boost etc...) |

easiest way to get fuel pressure is just to use the schrader valve on the pass side fuel rail...might need an adapter to thread it on depending on what they supply you with.
Im sure if you look around you can find a pic/description of where to install the oil pressure sensor..might need a Y to use the stock gauge and aftermarket |

Ok so i changed my mind and just going to do the fuel pressure gauge, so that i have this straight just hook it up to the schrader valve on the fuel rail??? just want to make sure, if that is correct that is too easy and will work out great,
going with a steering colum gauge pod. don't really need the oil pressure one. imo. i think with running a s/c the important ones are A/F, boost, and fuel pressure. so i want to have those there for me to view when i need too ASh |

Ash, I'm a little concerned that the title says "mech gauges!" I'm thinking you don't want to be running oil and fuel lines into the cockpit of the car!! :eek: Electrical gauges with sending units are the best and safest method to use. :3amin:

thanks for the concern, something to think bout, ASh |
Re: picture of hook up fuel and oil pressure mech gauges
for the fuel you would need a isolator to run the mech. inside the car.
i think its autometer part 5282 i would use it for the oil pressure as well, its no fun to have that cheap *** nylon line break and pump oil over the inside of your car. been the done that. |

Re: picture of hook up fuel and oil pressure mech gauges
since i'm doing just the one gauge on a steering column gauge pod, i hope the Auto Meter High Pressure Gauge Isolators will go on smooth without causing probs with fitment on the install. again thanks for letting me know bout that so when i do the install i'm not having to wait on that part to come in, thanks
