It can be done. Just make sure the VTEC sensor is straight off the T from the head to be sure it's gets the best flow.

I ran one from the port in the front of the head, but that's just to monitor my VTEC pressure.

could show me a pic of what it look like and all the measurements of hardware used.

Here's a few pics. All the fittings can be purchased at your local Home Depot, Lowe's, etc... Except the adapter fitting that goes into the head. That has to be purchased from AutoMeter.

Also, my setup only reads pressure when VTEC is engaged.
