What you want to do is get a brass T, and some barbs. Make sure all of them are equal to, or slightly larger than the stock fuel line. You will want to T into the fuel supply line to get your fuel pressure.

I wanted the dakotadigital, but the nordskog gauges matched better with the red readout setup, so I have 2 Nordskog gauges.

You will also need the respective sending units to each!

hmm summitracing mechanical guage, $26. just make sure you tap between firewall and fuel rail....

Are we talking about in-cabin applications, or just under-hood? Mechanical is fine for under-hood, but for in-cabin, you want Electronic!

Put it before the fuel rail (before any FMU or other FPR) but after any inline pump. Get a T fitting, with two hose barbs and some clamps, cut the line, install the T and hose barbs, clamp the hoses, thread in the sender and wire up the gauge.

My old "location" (roughly in the center of the picture). It is tucked away now, but you can more or less see what I'm talking about. The other picture is obviously the gauge itself.

i dig the beavis gauge setup

my only complaint with the nordskog gauge is the apparent "lag" it has in getting the readings.
