I now got an electric pressure gauge mounted in the cab in the over the mirror pod. It was around $10 on ebay with sensor and all. Not at all accurate but works, sometimes. I plan to upgrade in the future but nice electric fuel pressure gauges are pretty pricy.
I’ve installed two liquid filled industrial 0-100 psi gauges under the hoods of powerstrokes and both of the gauges sprung and quit working within a week or two.

Now this last part sorta has me worried. I just fired my new motor off last night and set the liquid filled guage under the hood to 68psi. My plan was to leave the liquid filled gauge on the regulator and put the adapter in the filter housing with the electrical sender for a gauge in the cab. But I really don't want to do the " hood insulation delete mod" if this is going to be a problem. Been there and done that before!
