Ok well after more research I have realized there is too much pressure in the transmission for my gauge and that there really is no need to monitor it, the temp is more important so ill hook up my pressure gauge for the engine oil instead and I have found good places to install them for the tranny and engine ill try to get pictures of it all installed
