I used to call a few, but since my parents sold their place, can't really do Install Fests at my place. Maybe someone else would be willing to host them.

I know how to install the guages provided you have the right tools (mainly for egt) but it sounds like you do. Are you using an oil sandwich adapter for the oil pressure guage?

this will make the installation of the oil temp 10000x easier because there will be no need to drill...
