AlbatrossCafe Posted November 11, 2017 Share Posted November 11, 2017 (edited) Can anyone tell me which vac hose to tap for a mechanical boost gauge on an L28ET? I took a pic. Bonus if you can draw an arrow pointing to a specific hose! Edited November 11, 2017 by AlbatrossCafe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chickenman Posted November 12, 2017 Share Posted November 12, 2017 (edited) Red or yellow Vacuum cap should be fine. Do I get a prize?? Edited November 12, 2017 by Chickenman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't even know there were extra unused caps. That makes it even easier/safer. I'm gonna try that tonight and see if I can get it working. Your prize is pending my success...

Chickenman Posted December 14, 2017 Share Posted December 14, 2017 That's an interesting gauge mount. Where did you get it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's really nothing special... just a $15 universal mount from glowshift: https://www.glowshiftdirect.com/universal-single-gauge-swivel-dashboard-pod/ It includes a little rubber grommet to hold the gauge in there securely. I like the location and adjustability, but I might trim 1/4" off the edge of the circle where it hangs over the A-pillar so it looks more flush. I didn't want to do anything very invasive since I don't plan on adding any other gauges. The only problem is that the 2-sided tape provided doesn't stick to that textured surface very well... it falls off. I will have to try another tape. Here is a video of it in action: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
