Hey Tom,
Does the pressure reading on you Aeroforce scan guages match pretty close to your electric fuel pressure gauge?

No leaks, just make sure you use solid clamps designed for injection hoses, like the ones in my pix.

Don't know, never really cared to look to be honest. I'll check it out.

Does not interfere with the shaker. Actually, I tried one of the fuel rail adaptors that let you add a gauge, and it would not fit with the shaker so I ended up doing the crossover tie in as shown.

There should not be any difference between doing it where I did or before the rails in the main feed line. The reason why I chose to do it in the crossover is:

1) if you mess up, you only have to replace a small section of hose instead of the main feed line.

2) I thought it would be interesting to see the reading at that point, right between the two rails.
