Default Fuel rail adapter for fuel pressure gauge?

I just bought a prosport electronic fuel pressure gauge, and the sender mounts to the end of the fuel rail. Anyone know where I can purchase an adapter so I can mount the sender? The send looks like NPT threads and I don't know what the fuel rail is. It's stock LS1 fuel rails. Thanks.

It looks like it may work. A heada up on that gauge. Make sure u have a ground wire coming off the fuel sender to the body under the hood. the ground wire from the gauge hooks up to the send also. Mine didn't work cuz I only had the ground from the gauge on it. Then I added another ground to the body from the Seder and it worked. The instructions don't say to do this.
