therer is a bung allready on the oil cooler on the back of the engine used for a water pressure sender for the smart craft and computer monitoring.. remove the factory unit and install a 1/4 pipe male,male, female tee.

Typically they come stock with a splitter off the brass T on the raw water pump where the smartcraft sending unit is, at least on my 2005.

no I'm asking if you have two 3 1/2" gauges you could remove and replace them with smartcraft sc1000's or if you have room to install an sc5000 system view. I have the ones I took out of my daytona and I was very pleased with the information they provided, much better than analog gauges.

Yes the smartcraft screen is really nice but I just like the looks of the monster gauges better. I do have the sc1000, I really don't have room for the big screen and I'm so stupid I can't hardly play a radio.

If you have the sc1000 then you already have water pressure. Why do you want water pressure info anyway are you having problems with hoses or temp??
