Default Fuel rail adapter

Hoping to install an electric fuel pressure gauge in the near future. I have stock ls1 rails and a recent search suggests I can just use an aftermarket adapter at the schraeder valve to tap into the rail. Any fitting you gentlemen find works best?
Thanks for any input

I am going a different route to have more space. I bought Earls 961966ERL. It will go inline with fuel rail and feed line on my 99 returnless factory set up.

if you are just going to run the sender off the end of the stock rails any -4an to 1/8npt fitting should work

I think I may go this route as well. Looks pretty reliable/simple and I've heard nothing but good things about earls stuff🍻

I actually have one of those that came with my innovate gauge but I'm not using it because I put the sender directly into my regulator... it isn't earls but it looks almost identical, shoot me a pm if you're interested

I actually have a LS1 rail with the necessary adapter to mount a 1/8 NPT fuel pressure sensor where the schrader valve was. If you want it just PM me and we can work it out.

Wow very nice of you guys to offer. I appreciate it.
I need a couple other small things so I'm going to pick one up from a vendor. Seemed like a PITA to ask you to ship something so small.
Thanks again for help.
