Default Monitoring fuel pressure

I have fuel injected my motor using a cross ram inlet and 8 injectors drilled in. I would like to monitor the fuel pressure to make sure the pump is delivering what it should at high demand. I am thinking of pluming in a oil pressure sending unit with gauge in the dashboard rather than a mechanical gauge as I don't like the idea of a hard line with pressurised fuel running into the cockpit.

I have noticed in adverts that electronic fuel pressure gauges seem to use oil sender units. Anybody got any thoughts on this.

My main motivation is that fuel pressure gauges are hard to get in South Africa and expensive whilst oil pressure gauges are about a quarter of the price.
