Boost gauge hookup

I was wondering if anyone knew if lowes carries the T line fitting like that is sold in the Diesel site kit? I have an autometer ultralite that i'm going to remove from my mustang to install on my truck and i really only need the T fitting and the new Compression fittings(i think i noticed the compression fittings at lowes a few weeks ago)

They might but I would try a large hardware store first they will help you not leave you looking at 100 ft of plumbing trying to find one fitting

Doubt it. We special order the individual items for out T kits from an inductrial supply company. If you want, we sell them and can ship one to you.

I found mine at a specialty store for fittings. They sold hydraulic and many other type fittings...

You might want to call around for the compression fittings...
