Snapped off afpr guage!

[boost97gst]

So i finally get my engine in today. Still have to install the PR kit and hook a few things up but on the install this evening i left my guage hooked up to the afpr, bad idea. It got snapped off by the intake mani on the way down
It s a cx racing afpr, do they sell replacement guages at autozone, napa, oreillys etc? i need a replacement to set base pressure after i rewire the pump. The base pressur ewill probably be a little bit different after rewire, otherwise i would just forget about it and plug the hole.

Oreilly sells all kinds of gauges, but im not sure if you will be able to get that without buying the whole regulator.

Its all about the type of thread and size of connection diameter the gauge is. Ill put it this way i was a plumber 4 years before i started my computer custom build and repair company and i have used plumbing gauges on everything from plumbing, air compressors, cars, potato cannons, and even on my liquid cooled high end gaming computer. long as its the same size fitting and you use Teflon tape you should be good to go with any gauge you choose.

I ran an air pressure gauge from a tractor supply store in my AFPR for a couple years.

When i worked as a petroleum technicain for Camcal we sold liquid filled gauges for 10 bucks a pop and they are the same thing as you would see on any race car or NOS Bottle. again long as the fitting is the same everything will work just fine..

Thanks, i checked every auto store around here. Nothing. Just ordered a aeromotive gauge for 25 bucks.
