I got a autometer pressure gage to hook up. Since the engine failure I no longer trust the stock gage.

Are the threads for the stock gage normal NPT or the metric NPT??

Also, I remember reading somewhere to remote mount the sending unit to make it live longer. Since I window welded the stock mounts and removed the balance shafts, vibration is going to be an issue. Anybody got any recommendation (picts would be good) of where/how they mounted theirs?
