[T3] Fuel Pressure Gauge"s

[bobsnotch at aol.com]

What I use is a 0 to 60 psi tire pressure gauge I bought at the Zone (was up by the counter for less than 10 bucks) and an 1/8th pipe connector, along with an 1/8th pipe to 5/16ths hose adapter, 1 foot of 5/16ths hose, along with 2 hose clamps. I had less than 20 bucks into this set up, including the brass fittings that I got at the hardware store. I went with a 0-60 psi gauge, as that puts the 28-32 psi working pressure of the D-jet system right in the middle of the gauge where it's most accurate (according to Russ Wolfe). I only use it for testing purposes, and it's served me well for that (on my wife's 70 Fastback and my old 71 Notch).
I hope this helps.

Working on this 1971 Fastback with FI.  Where is the best place to find a fuel pressure gauge and correct type and size of hose?  All the places here in Mobile have kits that include things I would probably never use, they are also quite expensive ($94.00) and up!
