Default Raptor Gauges? Yay OR Nay

So some of you might or might not remember me, yea my raptor head basically well uhhhh..... Broke in 2 lol. So now i got a new head, and valve cover and im starting the rebuild of the rappy. The oil pump failed and thats why we think the head cracked, and the piston seized and the connectiong-rod basically welded to the piston.... Its possible folks lol. So id like to avoid this with an Oil Pressure Guage installed on the rappy.I was wondering if it can be dont and if it will be a very complicated thing? I would like to have one mounted either on the front fender or near my handlebars. Im not very sure and hoping some of you guys/gals know for sure....


Thanks
Travis

I don't know of an oil line close to the frame that would show internal oil pressure. You might be able to mount something in one of the hard lines between the case and the head? I also think there is an oil gallery plug on the outside of the head but I'm not sure if it's pressurized.

Since you are in TX, you could call Craycraft Racing and talk to Bob. If anyone knows how to do it, he will.
