water pressure tie-in on '77 175 rude

[Crankstomp]

I know there are about a two hundred posts on this type of thing and I have read most of them, but I haven't seen anything on this particular year/model. Where do I need to tie into for proper operation. This is a new intall, I previously didn't have a pressure gauge.

When you buy the gauge kit it will have detailed instructions but on a crossflow you "T" into the overboard indicator line.<br /><br />Good luck!

I know that is the most common place to tie into a crossflow V6, but my engine has no pee hole or plumbing associated with one.

One can easily be added. You can tap into the water jacket on the exhaust plate or over #1 cylinder.
