This year the pump is going to be fine tuned. Want to install a pressure gauge for my intake pressure and bowl pressure. Where is a good location to drill and tap these parts for fittings? And I know this will be a can o worms, but anybody got any guidelines for intake pressures? I assume you want the lowest intake pressure possible while still maintaining bowl pressure? What I am after is making sure I'm not biting too much water and slowing the boat down. V-bottom jet, 75-80 mph.
Either at 10 clock or 2 oclock on the suction about 1 inch infront of the wear ring surface is about the best area. Make sure you pressure guage is steady at all times without fluctuation and about 35 to 40lbs to start.
