Default Fuel pressure gauge

Has anyone have a fuel pressue gauge on their dash? I have seen some pictures of 427 S/C models that have the guage in the dash. If anyone has that setup can you send pictures of your dash setup

I don't ever remember seeing one on the dash. The only fuel pressure gauges I've seen are live on a fuel line, ie actual pressure, not a "sender-gauge" config. You certainly wouldn't want the fuel line running from the engine compartment to the dash... If there is a sender config I'd start with google.

Some 289 comp cars used a 2-5/8” SW fuel pressure gauge on the dash.
You can use a fuel isolator on the firewall so that there’s no fuel in the cabin

Contemporary must have sold fuel pressure gauge as one of their kit packages as the kit I bought from the original owner had a fuel pressure gauge.
See photo. I didn't wind up using it, and I didn't research a way to safely utilize it.
