Smile Propane injection kit installed

I just installed a Bullydog propane injection kit in my 84 and will be installing a pyrometer shortly...going on a fishing trip in a few days, towing my 5th with my boat off the front to my headache rack...there are some serious mountain passes to get to the lake Im going to. I will let you gentlemen know how I made out when I get back.

I seriously hope the shortly is before the trip......... with that load and the hills you anticipate having no pyrometer could spell disaster.........

PLC7.3, yes I going to install in today, just trying to figure out where I can fit drill to install the thermocouple...I might have to rent a right angle drill to do this?

I drilled mine on the exhaust manifold on the second cylinder from the front(passenger side).

To get access all I did is remove the right front passenger side tire and the mud flap. This gave me good drill and tap access.

Note, the exhaust manifold is already re-inforced in the area where I drilled it. Almost looks like it was intended for a pyro probe.
