if you take the manifold pressure pipe out of the big fat nut with a nipple in the middle of the manifold then T it off to the dump valve and boost gauge ( same as you have described just another way) it will work yes, however idealy everything should be plumbed into the manifold seperataly

the least accurate part is probably the gauge

just for bragging rights my boost gauge is a new unused mkIII laminated gauge as fitted to the spitfire!!! *happy* untill i opened it last year it was un seen by man for 60+ years however i expect it to be as inaccurate as my mum!!

yeah i blanked them off just got a bit of overspray on them need to get some thinners on some pipes and the very top

what about if i got a spacer for the carb that has a take off on it would this be a good idea to run with the boost gaugE?
