I put my fitting in the passenger side exhaust manifold where my EGT probe used to be. Then drilled the driver's side to re-install the EGT probe.
Ok I was thinking the same but if you do it that way wouldn't you o my be watching g half the motor or am I thinking wrong and thanks for all your help man on both questions lol
I drilled and tapped the driverside manifold on my pickup. Only problem I have is the gauge bounces/flutters.
You can also put it into the up pipe like others have but you'll have to remove the up pipe for this.

I've got about 6'-8' coiled up of 1/4" or 3/16" going to an air/water seperator off of an air compressor then nylon tubing to my gauge. I bought a 6' roll if 1/8" I was going to try; the fluttering is driving me crazy.

That air/water separator is a good idea. I should try that and see if it'll help keep the soot build up out of my blow off valve.
I need to do this.. maybe passenger side works better cause their would be a couple other bends in the route and longer idk lol
From what I've read some say a small line (1/8") will stop the fluttering and others say a 1/4" worked for them.
I've got 3/16" or 1/4"(can't remember at the moment) and mine fluttered really bad when I first installed it. I took a pair of pliers to collapse the line and that helped calm the gauge down but not enough so I'm going to try the 1/8" line I bought. I also think I've got to much copper line so I was going to first remove some and try that; then install the 1/8" line.
I could be wrong though, it's known to happen.

I use a needle valve inline to help reduce the flutter along with a paint filter to trap most of the soot.
