For my 30 standard coupe, I'm installing a Rex-a-Co, 0 to 10 PSI oil pressure gauge. I'm trying to decide the best route to install the copper oil pressure line. I've seen some installed horizontally from the engine fitting to the firewall, then a couple of 90's into an opening in the firewall with other installations that take the line forward, then up next to the water neck, then back through the terminal box. I'm looking for a clean installation. Any pictures of your set up would really help. The oil pressure gauge will be mounted next to the water temp gauge w/both located below the instrument panel. Thank you!
