Adjust pressure !

I just installed my fuel pressure regualtor on my 5.0 and i am wondering what would be the best method in figuring out how to set my PSI on the regulator. I recently got a reply but it did not work. Can someone please tell me where i can get a pressure gage so i can fix this problem. Also can someone the recommended PSI for street use. Thanks

RE: Adjust pressure !

you can get a little one for $35 that mounts right on the fuel rail , in the schrader valve.

you need to read it w/ the vac line off.

RE: Adjust pressure !

dont buy oil filled though... been there and done that.... your readings will vary depending on the temp under the hood (oil viscosity, heat, etc)....
