Who runs the NOS Kit #5151 with the Accel FP Guage?

I was wondering if there is a "T" fitting made to be able to use the fuel feed for the NOS Kit #5151 and the Accel Fuel Pressure Guage. Is it possible to run both at the same time or do I have to get rid of the guage? Thanks.

Im pretty sure you can use a "T" fitting on the schrader valve. Im gonna try it as soon as i get a gauge. I dont see why it would cause a problem

NX http://www.nitrousexpress.com makes a fuel pressure adapter fitting that you can use. It has a female -04 AN inlet on one end, a male -04 AN outlet on the other and a female 1/8" NPT in the middle for the gauge.
The pressure port on the fuel rail is -04 AN. Simply remove the Accel gauge & adapter and set aside the gauge adapter, screw the NX fitting onto the fuel rail port, and attach the nitrous system fuel feed hose to the NX fitting. Install the Accel gauge (without the Accel adapter) in the side of the NX fitting. If your fuel feed hose has a straight hose end fitting on the end that screws to the pressure port, you can replace it with a 90° fitting for an even cleaner looking install.

make sure the valve stem core is out of the schrader. another option is to unhook the gauge, hook on the selenoid supply line and tee into the "in" fitting on the selonoid.
