I have nice fuel line that ties the 2 carbs together.. however there is a T on the inlet side and it has a 1/8" threaded hole for a gauge.
My problem is that 1 end of the T is a hose end therefore it can only face 1 direction which puts the hole for the preasure gauge towards the tunnel ram. I can't run it on the other side because of the linkage and it's not interchangable that i can tell. and I don't want to run the fuel inlet off the front side of the motor.
does anyone see a problem with drilling and tapping a new hole on the opposite side for a fuel gauge?
thanks

Well I have a hard time visualising you're setup, but couldn't you just get a different "T"???..But if you're putting the guage in the same location just on the opposite side it shouldn't make a difference!.....:confused:
