Boost Gauge on a 91 non intercooled.

Were should I put it? Ive been looking but I havent realy seen any spots. Does anyone have any pictures of were they put it. Any help will be great, thanks.

Put the gauge inside the cab, or hook the line to the engine?

As far as the hook up at the engine, there is a 1/8"pipe plug at the side of intake manifold behind the non-intercooled throttle bracket. The intercooled owners have it easy as they don't have to drill a hole in the throttle bracket for the boost tubing. Find this pipe plug then you can drill the bracket on or off the truck.

Oh, sorry I met were do I put the sensing end of the hose. So there is a place on the block. I know, like you said bgilbert that the 91. 5 and up can us the hole buy the pump. I didnt know about the one under the throttle bracket. I was told to drill a hole in the intake crossover tube. I will check that out, I like the sound of that better then drilling into the crossover tube. Thanks

No need to drill anything. Its the same pipe plug on nonIC'd vs. IC'd motors. Just on nonIC'd its hidden behind the throttle bracket.

Yes. . I drilled a 7/8 hole in line (eyeball) with the plug. That was large enough to use a socket on the plug and fittings.
