A tap to measure boost pressure on a pressure gauge?????? I don't know why that couldn't be tapped down on the manifold below the butterflies too.

Yes, its for the boost gauge. The hole was all read there, so that's where I put it. I got the whole supercharger set up from a guy that had it on an old Mustang. He was going back to original. Must be that's how he had it set up. I just utilized what was all ready there. Like I said, I'm hoping to pull the motor this winter and do some detail work on the engine bay and engine. It looks kind of ratty now. The motor has been in there for 7 years. And through changing this and changing that, its become unorganized....

Got a doe with my bow on the 18th. Missed a 6 point the next day. Haven't seen a deer since...lol.....The weather has been pretty crazy. Windy, warm, rainy, full moon, everything that would keep a deer from moving has happened in the past week.
My back is doing ok. I had the pain pump put in about 4 weeks ago. Now they just have to fine tune it. They had to change the meds in it to something else, now its just finding the right setting. They only turn it up a little at a time. Then it takes a few days to see if that setting will work. Its better, but still could be better. Now I look like I have a growth in my abdomen. The pump is about the size of a hockey puck....
