Default Fuel pressure gauge install...

Has any one relocated their Fuel Pressure Gauge off of the Fuel rail. If so where did you relocate it at, and what did you use to relocate it with.
I dont know if any of you remember me putting up a post about "C.A.M. Products-Has anyone heard of them?" but, I went ahead and purchased the Fuel Pump,Fuel Pressure Regulator ,and the Fuel Pressure gauge.
Everything looks pretty good. The pump is in, FPR is on, and the Gauge is nice ;BBBUUUUTTT the the threads on one of the fittings that came with it(gauge) dont match the threads on the shrader valve, so I'm going to relocate it. Don't really care to much for it being at the shrader valve anyway. SOOO just thought I'de get some insight from y'all.

It come with a 90, and black pneumatic looking fitting, it was supposed to fit right on...so I thought. Live and learn I guess. Well do you have link AdderMK? I thought I was getting all the right $hit.

Yeah, I removed it. But the threads on the so called adapter arent the same as the ones on the shraeder valve.The shraeder valves threads are more fine..
