I would like to hook up an engine temperature guage and either a pressure guage to the outlet side of my cooling line or a flow guage to the inlet side of my cooling line. My engine is mounted below deck and I run shallow sandy areas. I haven't had an issue in the past but I always worry about...

My steering is becoming a problem the extra horsepower has caused several issues with my steering I need to upgrade. Does the Teleflex work in place of the old pwc steering cable? Im thinking of getting the Teleflex and doing a stick steer instead of a wheel. If anyone has pictures of there...
