Hey I want to install a water pressure gauge since I’ll be adding a jack plate, I don’t feel like the tee off the tell tail stream is accurate, is there a better way to install one??

The "T" is just fine.

Will it read any pressure being it’s right next to the outlet?? I was thinking of taking water jacket off to drill and tap it, but if that’s how it goes I’ll just leave it
It may not look like it, but taking the water jacket off is a major chore, unless it's been off recently. Like omcforever said, the T works just fine.
Anywhere behind the tstats(water jackets) there will be pressure bleed slightly(not enough to matter) because of the T so it dosent matter if you drill into it. Gonna be the same. T is fine,,,if you had to remove the jacket, chances are being that old you will snap off some of the 1/4x20 mounting bolts and thats not fun.

Yes, and probably bend the water jacket.
what would bend the jacket??Originally Posted by 316jughead
i was able to remove it today no issue it needed to be taken off to put new gasket in had a small leak, I ended up not tapping it didn’t have the correcttal or bit I’ll just keep it where it is
Good job! I've never bent a water jacket, but I have seen the results of them being stuck so bad that prying on it bent it. One of the fun things in having employees.
