Fuel pressure test port

Ahh yea I forgot you were running the electric gauges. I'm all mechanical.

Still even on mechanical gauges I would still have some means of shutting down the fuel at the tap point this way if there is a failure of any type then you still capable of driving the truck.

Yea that's what I run on the 99 and how I was planning on installing it on the 02.

I run the push lock tee > needle valve > push lock fitting for hose > hose > push lock fitting for hose into gauge

On an electric gauge like the ISSPro EV2, you can't use the needle valve for snubbing. Being the gauge is internally dampened by software and nearly impossible to set properly. Then needle valve now becomes a fallback safety shut off valve so if there was a tubing failure under the hood I can just simply close the needle valve and continue driving. 

I use a needle valve as a snubber.  I've never had any issues with mine.  The valve is just barely cracked open.

I did that way for many years...

I have two snubbers.  A snubber on the gauge line coming off the fuel filter housing and ISSPRO custom installed a snubber orifice in the mechanical gauge for me for free.  Smooth and responsive gauge movement.

Oh yeah, I also installed a tee in the gauge line after the before the snubber and re-installed the OEM schrader valve test port in that tee.  I've only had to use it a couple times but I was sure glad it was there when I needed it.  I also bought a Vulcan test gauge and have it sitting around just in case.  Its always good to confirm your in-cab gauge upon installation at the very least.

That's my thoughts with this as well.  That's the plan.
