Default Liquid Filled Fuel Pressure Gauge... Just Drill and Tap Fuel Rail?

I got this Marshall liqiud filled fuel pressure gauge to go along with my B&M FPR and dsm 450's but I dont know how/where the gauge is supposed to go

I was hoping I could just tap anywhere I please on the fuel rail, throw some teflong tape on it, screw it in and be done

Ive done that a few times to my stock fuel rails. Make sure you drill the hole dead on and tap it dead on with the proper sized tap. Clean the bitch out thoroghly and use teflon tape on the gauge, screw it in, done!

Any advise on the location?

Like closest to the inlet as possible is what I was thinking....

Get an adapter and put it on top of the fuel filter. See these threads
