Ordering Gauges Today - Quick Question
I am ordering some gauges from a local shop today, but I have a quick question. If I don't get a "boost bolt" type fitting, will I have to drill/tap the intake manifold or is there something easily made to simulate the boost bolt?

I will order it from diesel manor if I have to because I'd rather not have to drill/tap the intake... I can't tell from the pic what the male end threads are.
The gauges are the Autometer Phantom II EGT, 0-60 psi Boost and Trans Temp in an a-arm triple pod. Anything else I'm missing or I should know for the install? I guess other than a 1/4" tap for the EGT probe (pre-turbo of course).
Thanks

Thanks guys, I'll order one tomorrow.
The local speedshop gave me a hell of a deal on the gauges, even better than Dieselmanor, but they won't be here for a month... guess its gonna be another month of babying it

I just figured out how to search the member's galleries and managed to find a pic of them.
You guys think these are going to be too bright at night? Maybe I should have got the dimmer too... I've never had Autometers that were LED lit before, my old Ultra-lites seemed far less bright.
