Hi=20 Joe,
   For Fuel pressure use a Stewart = Warner =20 114875.      These are=20 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) and=20 I would not recommend sharing that=20 one.

All=20 the best,
Tracy
