There is a flex line before, straight fittings before and after. followed by another flex line. I used an aluminum heat shield/mounting bracket that was clamped to the intake tubes. Seems to work just fine and I haven't seen the need to change the coefficient that was originally in the GRI unit. I don't use a current sensor as I feel that monitoring system voltage is adequate. I mounted their oil pressure sender (the VDO variable resistance device) directly to the oil pressure tap at the back of the engine with a stainless steel 45- degree fitting (street el).
