Hi guys,

Has anyone come up with a creative way to mount the fuel pressure switch/transducer? I’m using the LS9 or CTS-V fuel rail. Please post your pics.

I would keep the transducer off the rails and off the engine. Ou can run a AN-4 off the Schaeder valve and a hose and remote mount the transducer. There are also other options depending on how you have the read of the fuel system plumbed.

What fuel regulator are you using? If its an aeromotive type, just T the gauge and put a sensor there.

I remember seeing your video with the cracked schrader valve. My plan is to do just what you said, but I’m looking for a good location to remote mount it...

The entire fuel system Is complete already. I didn’t add this transducer to the Holley because I didn’t think about it at the time. I have a ricks tank and vaporworxs controller.

So wheres the fuel regulator or what style of regulator is being used? Assuming you are either running an intank regulator or sorts or a filter/regulator combo deal then?

There is no regulator. The VaporWorxs setup is a PWM controlled closed loop fuel pressure system.

Ahh ok thats where I was going with this. Kinda hard to help without knowing these things so I was throwing darts blindfolded and also missed the vaporworx controller part.

If an AN6==> GM 3/8 quick connect fitting is used on the fuel rail line attachment one of these may help:
