Default Gauges

I would like to add some guages to my 1997 dodge ram 5.9L 4x4 ext. cab, One of the 3 im going to want to add is fuel pressure, How would I go about attaching the sending unit to the fuel line?

I would be using glow shift guages.

Thanks,
Cheat.

You could put it on the test port on the rail.

Try spelling it right (gauges) and you can find a lot of good info in a search.

Two minutes of searching:

"The placement does not matter so long as you can easily see it. On a stock setup, you have only two options and they are:

- At the quick disconnect at the rail or,

- At / off the Schrader Valve."
