    You will have to tap the rail for 1/8th npt.

    Doesn't Accel or the like make one that attaches to the schrader valve on the back of the intake? I'm pretty sure they used to anyway.

    There is a schrader valve attachment but if he wants it like the pictures posted above you would have to drill/tap.

    Couldn't you put a braided line on the shrader at the back, and then mount the gauge to the firewall? Sounds mo' betta' in my opinion. No custom work. Reversable. Just as clean, if not more.

    Just put a bunch of grease on the drill bit and go slow, all the debre should stick to the grease and not fallinside the rail. Lots of turbo guys do this when tapping stock oil pans for returns.
