anyone know? 700

>someone's gotta know how to do this.

No, Kenric, I disagree, I think you'll be breaking new ground if you put a permanent gauge under the hood. You'll be the pioneer to tell the rest of us how to do this.

Summit: I've been to the site before and have their catalog, which by the way, I ordered originally years ago to find the metric adapters for LH fuel rails.

Didn't find any there, at Summit, and my guess is you aren't finding them there either. My solution was to grab a fuel rail at the pick and pull and saw it up. I silver soldered the in fitting to the out fitting with an air-conditioning type shraeder tap for the aftermarket gauge. No, I wasn't leaving it under the hood, but the basic principle is what you're looking for. Just have to make it yourself. I can almost guarantee no one will build you one with the liability they could incur.

I agree with not running fuel into the passenger compartment. I looked into solid state pressure transducers for that idea (which I understand doesn't interest you) but quickly got turned off by the cost.

Good luck, Kenric, tell us how you build it.
