    Does anyone know of a decent 1.125”fuel pressure gauge with a smaller max pressure than 15#? If I’m going to run a max pressure of 5# I don’t need a gauge that reads 15# (I think 6-7# would be plenty).

    Pretty much most gauges read the higher levels. Only gauge I can remember was the very small Mallory gauges.

    WOWW! $88 for that gauge seems like a lot. Perhaps I'm still living in 1960.

    Wish ****s Hot Rod Carbs was still around. He had the best low pressure gauge around. I have one on my 39.

    The smaller the gauge the Less accurate.

    Marshall gauges on e-bay, there are quite a few variations of the 0-15 gauges in really small diameters.

    Marshal seems like good quality but can’t speak from years of use…

    I found this one online, it works great but is **** the hell ugly (IMHO). I removed it and plugged the hole, it is only needed for tune ups and troubleshooting.
