Hi=20 Joe,
   For Fuel pressure use a Stewart=20 Warner  114875.     =20 These are available from Summit Racing as PN =20 SWW-114875. =20

There=20 is only one sensor you could possibly share with a monitor (inlet air = temp)=20 and I would not recommend sharing that=20 one.

All=20 the best,
Tracy
