Hey fellas, does anyone know where I can get some sort of fitting to screw into the front passenger side rail that has a schrader valve & cap with it??? I'd like to be able to check fuel pressure if needed & I've heard the screw in fuel gauges for the rails aren't that acurate... Ive searched jegs & summit, but cannot find anything that I'm looking for... Any info is appreciated, thanks!!

You can use a Ford schrader valve with an adapter fitting in the fuel rail. See the following link. This is what Professional Products recommends when installing their fuel rails.

otc has them for the fuel line shut off adapters. any tool vender should have no problem getting you this.... (mac, matco, cornwell perhaps even snap on)

Just wondering how you were planning on checking the pressure if those gauges are not accurate? If you don't trust the gauges, why not just block it off?

^^^No I was talking about the smaller stationary liquid filled guages that screw into the end of the fuel rail, that's what I don't want to use.... I was wanting to use a schrader valve on the end of the rail, like the stock rails have, to put a hose guage on when dyno tunning... Then when done, unscrew the the hose fron the schrader & cap the valve... By the way I found one, here's a pic of it on the new motor, front right rail.




Thanks for the help guys!

Is that a GM type schrader valve? Where did you find it; I've only been able to find the Ford style.

Yes it is... I got lucky & a friend at work happened to have a spare one from one of his pressure test kits... Then I justed bought a 3/8 male fuel pipe bushing that reduces to a 1/8 female end to screw the valve into.
