Scott, looks like you can install your MAP port on the 1/4" end  plate. Make another 2 ports for temp. sensor and MAP for the fuel  pressure regulator. They are 1/8" NPT (Pipe thread)


Hi Scott,

My plenum looks similar to yours.  I have one port in the center of the
rear face which I 'T' off to the fuel regulator and the EC2.  I
attached my temp sensor to the outside of a cone filter that I'm using
on the throttle body.  I don't have a lot of time on the engine yet,
but I believe I'm seeing some variation in the MAP, particularily at
lower RPM.  At some point I'm going to try to put a restriction in the
MAP port to see if that will dampen the variation out.
