Default Help with Hobbs switch

I bought a Hotwire kit and dual in tank Walbro kit from show me speed and the Hobbs switch sold with the kit was discontinued so it's missing from my kit.

I'm really not understanding the threads about which switches I should be targeting so I would like help pointing me to the correct one....

Fuel system is dual Walbro 255 with Hotwire kit from showmespeed
80lb Siemens injectors on stock fuel rails

Want Hobbs switch that will kick on at 5 psi to complete my kit

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I used the Honeywell also-some of them have a rubber plug you can rem. and tweak the screw to change the PSI range

This is the one I bought, its set at 4 psi from the factory and works perfect.
Its also adjustable if need be.
