Put it into the side of the block, where the water drains are if you're looking where to put the sender. If you want to know where to mount the gauge...try the dash.

Are you talking about measuring block pressure or pump pressure?? Two different animals.

Towards the bottom side of the housing, near the impeller, one in the middle, and one towards the top.

Look in the IHBA and NJBA rule book regarding sender placement. If you want to take it to the track, I suggest you install it where they say to.

The doctor told me that you want the pressure constant across the face of the impeller.

...or unless the rules dictate where the sender needs to be located.

Not a Dominator but the locations should be about the same.
