I have a 0-15 lb Moroso but with my drag radials I need something that goes to 20 lbs. Any suggestions on which is the best?

Thanks!

Replace the gauge with a 0-30# gauge, use the same hose and air chuck.

I removed my hose and air chuck, added a longer fuel hose to my air gauge and used it to check my fuel pressure while driving. The moroso 0-15 psi gauge was perfect for that. It's back to a air gauge now.

Think Jegs is running a sale on air gauges right now - 15, 30, 60 lb gauges. They look pretty good.

I really don't want one that goes to 30 lbs as I will never go past 20. The smaller the greatest reading will allow for more in between increments.

I can't use my current gauge for fuel pressure because I run FI on everything I own.

A 0-30# will be the most accurate for you. Always want your readings in the middle of the scale.

BTW the CSI one is the most expensive air gauge that I know about, you asked what was best.

We bought a couple of these. They work very well and match my high dollar Longacre and Moroso gauges. They have increments of .1 lbs

Thanks guys! Al, I like the digital gauge, especially because it is pretty inexpensive and you stated it matches your high dollar ones!

I was surprised myself. We were just looking for something to do front tires, golf cart, trailer etc. We put one in the dragsters toolbox to take to the lanes now. Will stick with my uber dollar one for the Stratus for now for appearances sake smile

Cheap, but it works for me. I think I found it at Bass Pro in their ATV section.

Slimes digital gauge matched my Longacre and Moroso digital gauge exactly for $9.99

I bought one of these from Jeg's: http://www.jegs.com/i/JEGS-Performance-P...702#moreDetails

Cross-checked it against my Moroso 0-15 at 15 psi and it was almost identical; cross-checked it against another gauge of mine I've had for years at 45 psi and it was w/in 1/2 psi. It's my go-to gauge now for everything except needing to air up the space-savers at 60 psi.
