I Hope someone can tell me where I can tap to hook up a boost guage on my 99 F250 7.3 Diesel seems that the dealer can't pin point the correct line to do this without drilling the intake manifold (don't like that idea).Please Help!!

On my 2000 f250 (Iwish I kept it) looking into the engine on the left side to the back you should see a small black box with a small line and a plug with wires I tee into that line the line should go back to the intake. Do keep that 7.3 for along time so far the BEST engine in the ford trucks.

Go to www.dieselmanor.com and look at the left side of the home page there is a heading Install Sheets. Go to that page and you will see a list of all the different engines find the 7.3 liter and there are clear color photos on how to install several gauges if I remember you can click on each photo and enlarge it for a clearer view. I bought a set of gauges and the pillar mount from them and followed their installation instructions and it all came out perfectly, I was very proud of myself!
