Exclamation HELP!! Boost Gauge on LBZ

Does anyone know where or how to hook up a boost gauge on an LBZ? Im trying to get these gauges installed and im stuck with this one thing. I got the autometer gauges if that makes a difference.. Pictures would be a HUGE HELP! or just call my cell cause Im out in the driveway running wires and the more Coors lights I get down the more frustrating this becomes . Thanks!

ok i tried to get pictures but apparently im an idiot and dont know how to work a computer. But it looks like you have drill and tap the intake elbow right underneath your air filter and hook the tubing in there. there are pictures at dieselmanor.com buti could not get them to post. thats for the ISSPRO guages but im assuming its all the same for the hook ups as long as they are mechanical guages

Thanks guys, Looks like I have to tap it.. The gauge kit came with a plastic "T" fitting to install in a vacuum line... Guess that dont work with the LBZ's... So I got everything ran behind the dash tonight, I gotta go pick up the fittings in the morning that will screw into the cast looking intake elbow tomorrow, plus some 18 ga wire and a couple connectors and fuse finger things to hook the lights up. Thanks for the replies ya'll..
