Any tips on mounting a brake pressure gauge inside my car?
While my dash is apart I’m thinking about installing a brake pressure gauge. Will I need to bleed the line feeding the gauge? Chances are it will sit higher in the car than the master cylinder. Feel free to post pics of your setup. Thank you. Mitch

I bleed mine with gauge lower then master cylinder. Then mounted on A pillar rollbar. Very easy to see and get pressure right. But to be honest when running footbrake races I no longer look at gauge.

Try to use a glycerin filed gage. I believe that they are more durable.
