Hobbs switches easy to find. I prefer the ones from Racetronix as they use proper metripak connectors. I am a little fussy about stuff like that. They come in various psi settings and are also adjustable.

These are the 3 I am currently installing on my build.

You happen to have the part number? And does it come with the connector as well? If you you have part number and place you got that as well. Thanks I think I need to run 2 as well if I'm running water/Meth is that right

Don't have them with me. Look on racetronix website. If I remember right it's HPS-2 (the 2 being 2 psi) HPS-7 for 7 psi, etc. the connector is seperate but listed with the switch in the site.
Meth should run either off the MAP or MAF , not a Hobbs. At least my Alky Control meth works that way. Not sure of other companies.

One for each pump in a Holley 12-1800 dual pump and the 3rd for a BAP that is on my stock in tank pump. Should be plenty of fuel. LOL.
