The Marlin Test
Whoever thought that the Marlin manual would be accurate! I think that this was a deliberate attempt by Mark to test us builders! A challenge, making us come up with different ideas once we had drilled the holes in the wrong location.
John I am surprised that after seeing my ‘quick fix’ you made the same mistake and after seeing it through SVA too.
For those who are not familiar with my car, I actually found the hose to be close but had to cut a second hole which merged into the first hole. So that presented a problem 1 how to fit the ‘eyeballs’ and how to tidy up what was now a mess.
As I had already purchased a turbo boost gauge and a mounting pod, I found the base of the ‘pod’ was able to hide the mess and as a bonus the internal shape turned the air through 90 degrees. What a surprise when the ‘eyeballs’ fitted the gauge housing!
So I have 3 housings on my dash, one pointing at me with the boost and 2 facing away at the screen and I must say they do an excellent job.
Regards to all builders
