Question Fuel line/Fuel Pressure Gauge

I am installing a fuel pressure gauge and currently I have the Trick Flow fuel rail adapter, but it sits to high to clear the Aluminum Edelbrock Covers for the E-Force.
Is there an adapter I can use in the fuel line?
I was also looking at making a braided fuel line using AN fittings, but I am not sure of what size spring locks I need for each end.
What size spring locks do I need and could you provide a link to them?

Thanks for our help.

I had this problem with a Steeda fuel rail adaptor and fuel guage. I installed an adaptor on the fuel crossover hose between the rails.








I ran this with a CDC shaker setup and Vortech blower. I had no problems. Later when I switched to a Saleen blower, I installed a new crossover and used Aeroforce scan guages, which monitored fuel pressure via the ECM.

A question on the Aeroforce, did they moniter the volts correctly, currently i have been having problems not being able to notice when my battery is about to die since the dummy gauge is useless.

Yes, the Aeroforce guages plug right into the computer port, they "see" the same things that the computer sees as far as voltage, fuel pressure, water temp, etc.

Aeromotive makes a relocation for the fuel rail sensor itself, you could drill and tap that and mount a gauge on the fuel rail clean and obstruction free!

I just ran a T with a fitting for the sensor. Similar to Tom281, but I'm running a Whipple so I had to mount mine between the firewall and the blower.. alittle towards the passenger side.
