Default FP Gauge

Well, first off no I didnt have a FP Gauge but only had the truck for about two months for my vp kicked the bucket. But I gotta new one coming a raptor 100 and a FP gauge from StreetGlow, I guess my question is: Will the FP gauge still connect straight to the vp, and if anyone has installed a FP from streetglow, your input would be amazing because their instructions are very vivid.

Not familiar with street glow but it should go in to your banjo bolt at the injection pump.

You will need a special 90 degree tapped fitting.

2379 If you are going to use electric fuel presure gauge, I recoment getting a snubber valve from summit racing (part #2379). With out this it is only a matter of time being the surge of fuel will junk your sending unit. These are like $18 that is alot cheaper than a sending unit.

Never dealt with Streetglow so I am not sure if you even have all the parts required.
