You think that YOU have it rough? What about the TBI guys that have to disconnect the fuel line and install an in-line gauge? Talk about a PITA!
But seriously, it's relatively inexpensive to install a permanent remotely mounted gauge. That's my plan when I get the TPI in the car! If you wanted to get really trick with it, you could get a pressure transducer and an electronic gauge and be able to read it from in the car!

Your gage is only for test use. What you need is a Autometer FPG
& SS Braided line (36") with the correct AN fittings to connect the gage to the schrader valve. Check Summit for info.
