fuel pressure for 383 swap

Was wondering where is a good place to mount a fuel pressure gauge on the outside of the car? I was thinking of cutting a hole in the left side of the cowl of my hood (i have a 4'' hood) and mounting it there. anyone got any ideas or fics ide appreciate it. oh by the way its an autometer 2 5/8'' gauge.

Assuming your cowl hood is like every other cowl hood, mount it under the cowl so you can see it from the driver's seat but not from outside the car.
