1. Buy a fuel pressure gauge meant for fuel injected engines, $40 at Pep Boys

2. Make sure you have the mods requiring such a boost (headwork, camshaft, higher ratio rockers, etc- the more you raise incoming airflow, the more fuel you'll need)

3a. Buy an adjustable fuel pressure regulator (Crane, Jet, Hypertech, TPIS, etc)- the v8 TPI ones fit our fuel rails

OR

3b. Make your own AFPR. The instructions are in the Tech Articles section of thirdgen.org
