Fuel gauge location?
I just received my Isspro fuel gauge from Riffraff and was curios which port on the fuel bowl to get the most accurate reading, or does it matter? Top driver side is pre filter and lower pass side is post filter. Thinking about going post filter port.

I went post filter when I did mine. I thought it was a little tricky to get to. Hardest part for me was trying to get a wrench that would fit in between all the stuff around it to tighten it. I have been getting a fuel pressure reading of 60-65psi. Do you guys with fuel pressure gauges still replace fuel filter on regular intervals or do you wait for the gauge to start showing a drop in psi?

The filter is not just about dirt, the OEM is also about water. I don't know the dynamics of the water part of the filter, so I don't push the filter past the recommended schedule.

This is great information. My Isspro gauge came in from Clay last week and I have not had the time to install it. My question, is there enough lead to mount the gauge in a pod above the rearview mirror?

Good info, I'm going to try and get mine installed post filter tomorrow and will take some pics.
brwolfjr, I would think there should be plenty of wire from above mirror to fuel bowl.
