Dan, you can probably install a mechanical gauge in place of the factory
sending unit. At least on mine with the M1 intake w/egr there is no room
for an Autometer electrical sending unit. The sender is too big around.
The mechanical one might be smaller.

I have an Autometer mechanical fuel pressure gauge with a steel braided line
that screws into the Schrader valve on the fuel rail. Just remove the
valve. No need to drill or tap anything. They also make remote sensing
fuel pressure gauges that will still connect at the Schrader valve.
