Thumbs up Fuel pressure gauge?

Where can I get a fuel pressure gauge for my BetaII engine? I want one on the end of the fuel rail.

anywhere. any performance automotive shop will carry them.

make sure it's a fuel pressure gauge that reads 0-100 (fuel injected application) and not one for carb that reads low pressure.

all fuel pressure gauges if im not mistaken come standard 1/8th NPT? (could be wrong) but each gauge new comes with fittings and adapters to make it work with almost all applications.

does your fuel rail have a port on the end of it to accept a fuel pressure gauge? if not, you will have to consider either a) drilling out the end of your rail and tapping it for NPT threads.. or cool.gif running a 3 way T fitting from your return line to a gauge.

one tee port is return in.. one is return out.. and the last would be for the gauge.

ebay has them, if you scan craigslist im sure you'll find one.
last option, i think being the most viable one with the most function.. is just get an adjustable FPR that comes with a gauge. best of both worlds.. now you can not only SEE your fuel pressure.. but you can adjust it too (unless you already HAVE an fpr, then ignore that statement)

The betaII is returnless (no adjustment from under the hood) and has a "pulse dampener" or something like that threaded to the end of the rail. The factory has an adapter for it, I am about to get one. I will let you know where I find it cheap.
