I bought a 0-100psi fuel pressure gauge from summit over the holiday and it has came in. It is a fuel rail mount style BUT I cannot find a union fitting for it Napa dont have anything because the gauge threads and the rail threads are different courses, Has anyone had this problem and what did you do? just for refference its a 1pc rail

The gauge that I have like that came with different fittings to attach to the rail. Although the standard thread that came on the hose was the right one, so I did not need any adapters.

I just tee'd into the fuel line. Use a copper 3 way Tee and off you go.

mike, definitely do not mount it to the rail permantly. they have been known to vibrate and crack the fitting at the rail. though, with the s/s rail, it may not be an issue.
just tee into the feed line and remote mount it. i have flaring tools ect if you need some help.
