I would think you would need one with your mods. What fuel pump do you have and what size inj. do you have.
Yes you will need a fuel pressure gauge and they are smiple to install you just need a allen wrench.

If you're gonna get an adj. fuel regulator, I definitely recommend the Kirban. Also get the guage to mount in the engine bay for adj monitoring. Holcomb Ford sells a kit for $135.

I have 24lb inj and an 80mm maf on my stang with the stock fuel pressure reg. I believe it is set at 44lbs with my 255 pump... I need to get a kirban sometime soon, do you agree?

I have stock injectors and fuel pump. Why get a engine mount gauge why not a autometer one?

Thanks,
matt

Most people don't like running a fuel pressure line in the cabin. And rail mount gauges are easy to install.

You can buy electric...but then it cost $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$. Plus if its inside, i would think u would have to adjust....go around and check...adjust...go check. Unless you had someone else to help u OR if you bought a rail mount too which is more $$$$$$$$$

So just buy the rail mount.
