You will need a 0-60 psi guage for a 12V....as you should be seeing pressures over 30 psi.

Why do you need a shut off on the mechanical gauge. Any old oil pressure gauge will work?

You need a shutoff in case the gauge starts to leak in the cab - would be nice to be able to shut it off. You need a needle valve or pressure snubber to dampen the pulses from the VP-44 which protects your guage.

Yes, any pressure guage will work even though it doesnt say fuel pressure on it.

hold on - be careful what your ordering hop sing that tapped banjo bolt thats shown above wont work on a 12V - its too small and you cant buy them either. You have to pull the stock banjo bolt that on the inlet of the P-7100 and tap it with a 1/8" npt tap.

Like I said start a thread in the 12V forums or do a search.. The info is there.
