I use the Grand Rapids Technologies EIS system for engine
data. I love it as it has an alarm system that whacks me in the head
(visually) when my EGT's go over red-line; (or anything else for that matter.)
The easiest EGT probe to install would be the P-110 hose
clamp mount. Mine are P-111 mounted via a 1/8" NPT to 1/8"
compression fitting screwed into the exhaust manifold. Check your
exhaust manifold. It should have two bosses welded on the top or
bottom about 2" from the engine flange. These are for the EGT probes.
