After some trips to the hardware store I finally made a t-off setup for the old electric sensor as well as the mechanical capillary tube to an under dash mechanical gauge.

When I fired it up to test, it was reading about 50-55psi at idle. Does this seem about right to the engine-nerdy out there? What range should I expect as it revs up into the 3K-4Krpm range (that's about max rpms right?).

Thanks for all input out there.
