What are most people using for fuel pressure gauges, mechanical or electrical? Beneifts and disadvantages to each?

 

Using the Nordskog electric gauge with my set up.....

The main benefit is you dont want to run a fuel line inside the truck.

 

I have an autometer electric gauge in mine, or will have soon. Like blownchevy said, if you run a mechanical you will have to run a fuel line inside the truck.

 

i have a automter elec. and under the hood i have a mechanical

 

Electric here too, easier done and a little safer I think.
Have the Stewart Warner out of the Maximun Performance line.
Just make sure if you go electric your sending unit has a good ground or you'll get intermitent or no readings at all.

 

ok i am gonna jump on this thread and ask a few questions. for you guys that are running fuel pressure gauges is anyone running nitrous? if so, what do you do, but a T fitting? thats the only way i see it mounting to the fuel rail. also, when you ordered your fuel pressure gauge, what else did you order with it? sending unit? or does it come with what you need when you order a nordskog or autometer gauge.

 

Not running nitrous so I can't help you there, but the autometer gauge comes with the sender, you will need some fittings to attach it though.

 

ok. thats what i was wanting to know. how much have yall paid for the gauge. i have seen some go way on up there in price and some down around 50 bucks.

 

I have an Autometer electric. The sending unit is a 1/8" thread and screws right into the fuel rail. No mods needed. If anyone does find a "T" with a 1/8" and a 4AN or whatever the N2O fitting is, post up. I haven't been able to find one.

 

P.S. This is the one I got
