LLY Boost Gauge Hook Up?

[gmcbman]

Just bought new A-pillar gauge set(2) and wondering where to hook up boost gauge. On LB7 engine it seems easy. Has anyone done one. Thanks for any help, just became a member but have been reading for quite some time. :confused:

I tapped my intake manifold like Kennedy did. I didn't pull my manifold off like Kennedy. I put the blue boot on a Shop vac., stuffed a towel in the manifold past where I was drilling, then put the boot on the manifold. Turn on the shop vac and drill the hole. Tap the hole, then pull off the vac. Pull the towel out of the maniflod. The vac. will suck out a lot of the debris, and the towel will get the rest and keep any from going into the manifold. It worked for me. Be careful, work slow, and it will be easy. You can pull the manifold if you want. It is your choice.
