    I bought the above mentioned gauge. Couple of questions.

    1- The pressure ports are marked R and F. Which is for Port and Starboard?
    2- Can I mount the gauge on a horizontal surface or does it need to be vertical? I have a spot on the dash, near the helm in which the previous owner mounted a portable GPS and he took it with him. I have 3 holes in the location. Putting the boost gauge here would eliminate these holes. It will be easy to read.
    I do have another place that is vertical.

    Thank you,
    Bob

    I was hoping someone from SB could answer the question. I will have to call on Monday.
    The face has a red and green indicator needles.
    Thanks.

    Yeah, IDK what the face looks like so I can’t help with the F and the R ports. Before you do the final instal, run the engines with it connected to figure it out.

    Here is a pic of the back.
    It is a dual use gauge. I can hook it up and see which side goes to which engine. There is a fifty-fifty chance of getting it right.

    Do you have a picture? Gauges typically do not have an orientation requirement.
