  • Manifold Pressure hook up

    I understand the typical location for manifold pressure reading is the rear cylinder inlet on the right side, so cylinder #3. Besides a MP source for the G3X I need MP to both LightSpeed ignitions via tubing. I will mount a manifold on an engine mount tube and mount the pressure transducer to that. My question is what is the typical way to get from the cylinder to the manifold, tubing or some kind of hose?

    Hey Rod...mine is connected to cylinder #5. I used Parker Stratoflex 193-4 and standard hose fittings. My line goes through the firewall and connects to my EI MP gauge.

      I went with MP for instrumentation off one rear cylinder and for the ignition off the other rear cylinder.
