Default Where to put fuel pressure guage sending unit??

I curantly have the sender screwed into the top part of the Whipple intake that houses the 2 auxillary injectors. When I put in the 6.0 and 43 pound/hr injectors I will be eliminating the 2 whipple injectors.I want to remove the top of the auxillary injector housing and make a flat block off plate to make it look clean.Only problem is, I have no idea where to relocate the fuel pressure guage sending unit??

Hook it to the schrader valve port. Just get a tire valve removal tool and take the schrader valve out. Then get a fitting to hook your sender up. The port has -4 AN threads and the sender has 1/8" NPT.

A single fitting that adapts these sizes can be had from Metco Inc. Check the last post in this thread to see what to order. Their website is in that thread also.

Hmmmm.....good question. Just looked at some pics and it doesn't look like it.

What does the auxillary injector plumbing hook into? Maybe you could unhook it from the injector block and get the right fittings to hook it up to your sender.
