Got tired of breaking banjo bolts and used some boost gauge line and fittings. Works perfect. Left a little slack in the line so I can just unscrew the pump top and lay it off to the side without having to take the reference line off. Dont know why I didnt do this a long time ago.

Before the AFC delete, this is what I used. I'm not a huge fan of the ferrules. The push in fittings for the 1/4 lines rock.
