Any one have the part numbers for them. Want to do one so I don't have to keep putting the checker on there. Any tips to this too? I do like the autometer gauges personally the Ultra-lite edition. Do they make one that is liquid fuild, I couldn't find one on Summit's website. Thanks.

Accel sells a fuelpressure gauge that mounts directly to the schrader valve on the fuel rail on TPI cars. I had one lying around and used it on my HSR. it is mounted on the RH rail at the front near the TB. IIRC< Ihad to get a few different fittings to get it to work. The gauge will come with a 90 degree hard line to mount it in place. Below is the pic of it. I think it is about 1 1/2" diameter.

Thanks...is that Accel one liquid filled as well. I really don't want a 2 5/8 gauge sitting right there...1 1/2 will do me just fine.

I found a Summit Racing gauge that is liquid filled and 1 1/2" for like $20. Looks nice just has Summit on the face of it and a Chrome ring. I think I might get that one...the Accel one is not liquid filled. Just found that out.
