Fuel Pressure Guage

Ive heard of guys getting an aftermarket fuel filter cap with a threaded tap to install a pressure sensor to monitor fuel pressure. Is there a factory place to install a sensor for a guage or would this be the best route??? Thanks!

I believe there is a port in the base of the fuel bowl that can have a sensor - there is a nut in there that you unscrew and in goes your sensor. IDP I think sells an adapter kit so that everything fits together nicely - I'll look for a link - I know I bought it for $30 a few yrs ago. The memory is getting foggy...
