Pyrometer probe installation

[twomorestrokes]

Just won a cool matching pair of Autometer Cobalt gauges on eBay, boost and pyrometer. They are used and the pyrometer is missing the exhaust manifold fitting because he left it in his HD when he sold it. The probe is 90 degree shaped and has no threads. Any idea how this mounts to the exhaust?

Also, where are you guys mounting the EGT probe on your turbo setups?

Thanks, Mike

No problem. Do most folks place them in the manifold, even on the 6.2's? I've seen them drilled into the Duramax manifolds as well but I've read to place them 6" after the turbo so I was curious about that.

I put mine in the riser (pyro) about 3/4" below the turbo flange, to the outside for ease of wiring. the boost was install in the middle of plentellum probely not the best spot

Here's where I ended up putting them.
