I am hooking mine up to the brake booster hose. And the fuel pressure to the drivers side fuel rail.

Get a mechanical boost gauge and a electric fuel pressure gauge. https://ls1tech.com/forums/showthrea...gauge+pictures

Here is a shot of a fitting I made for my boost gauge pick up and a tap for the supply for my bypass valve. Hope the pictures will up load.

A little FYI, just get a free acount setup from a place like photobucket.com and then upload your pics to it, then put the image link in your post and you will have full size pics in you post.

I just learned how to do this yesterday
