I've done a similar trick on Honda's back in the day (put it on 4 jackstands and just let it drip out). I usually had to follow up with a 2 person pump bleed to get any remaining air out. My reasoning was there are higher points in the brake system than the bleeder valve so the air will stay there unless something physically pushes it to the bleeder. The guy who usually helps me puts his other foot under the pedal so he never fully floors the pedal completely during bleeding. You could probably throw a piece of wood or something different back there to accomplish the same thing. I've heard that's it possible to introduce air by flooring the brake pedal during bleeding but the idea of dislodging debris makes sense.

Do you intend to sell a sending unit as a package deal or would we need to order it from Prosport? I believe I read a thread a long time ago about a port somewhere on the block that's just capped (factory testing location maybe) that you can use for oil pressure. I'm hoping something like an oil filter doughnut adapter wouldn't be needed. Great idea on the pivot point for boost/vacuum. That seems a lot more logical to me coming from a traditional dial boost gauge. Looking forward to the next version, I definitely want one.

Curious to see how the oil pressure development is going. Any luck getting a hold of prosport? I want one but I'd really like to get one with the ability to also display oil pressure as well (saved my bacon in another car that had a valve cover oil leak).
