    what are peoples thoughts on a good fuel pressure gauge to use with 97 strombergs,and if you have any ideas where can I get one.I am not convinced that 0-15psi gauges are accurate enough but can not find anything the right size for a fuel block in the 0-5ps range

    A quality 0-15 guage will be pleanty good enough. a cheap one may not be.

    what ever you do,stay away from those mr gasket bubblewrap pepboys POS gauges it'll last exactly long enough to get your hood down till it starts sprayin gas all over your hot engine. same goes for those gl*** see thru fuel filters.

    I am using a 0-15 liquid-filled Moon fuel pressure gauge on my fuel block on the firewall and it is accurate and easy to read........I am also running a Holley 1-5 lbs. fuel pressure regulator in my fuel line ahead of the electric fuel pump along my driver's side frame rail........my three 97's never flood on my flathead......I am also running Grose Jets instead of the common needle and seat fuel inlets.....

    Hope that helps you out.....

    VDO also make a good quality 0-15 psi gauge, not cheap but worth it.
     
  7. I think the engine-turned ones are made by Marshall.
