Will this FP gauge work as a rail mounted?

Any insight. Looks like I would just need to get some fittings. Seems like a great deal compared to all the others I have seen for $60+!

edit: some more info here... http://store.summitracing.com/productdetail.asp?p=2230 mentions what fitting it comes with..

It looks to me like it would fit. If you want to be certain give summit tech support a call. They are usually very good.

Good luck, Mike

Note that this gauge only goes to 60psi.. Good for adjusting base fuel pressure, but if you're running alot of boost, it will not go high enough (incase you wanted to run a braided line and mount it under a wiper for tuning purposes.)..

Goodluck..

Steve, ask Jim Dunn jim@buickturboperformance.com what the part # is for the guage he uses on the fuel rail of his wifes car he got it from grainger, I thought he said it was like $13.00 and its pretty accurate.

yep

I have a Jeg's one on mine. Been there several years.

That's pretty cheap...

What I'd really like to know though, is where to get an adapter so I could screw my pressure gauge w/hose on and check it. Anybody have any idea what threads or adapter will fit?

I have a freon fill hose that'll screw on it and depress the valve and everthing, but on the other end it's still the same thread size I think, which won't mate with my pressure hose.

I know I've seen the T fitting for a gauge on some site for sale w/o the gauge, I would think you could get one of those and use it with that one.

I am pretty sure that is the same model I purchased from summit and I have mounted it on the fuel rail. Here is a pic:

Here is what I used and everything is from Jegs.

0-100psi

They also have a fuel rail adapter that will fit on our fuel rail. Basically this fitting will extend your fuel rail at the drivers side and allow you to install this gauge.

Good Luck.
