Dear FOT,
I would like to thank everyone for all of the fuel pressure responses. The
engine is breaking up at about 5,000 RPM at the of the back straight. Before,
it has always been the fuel pump (I assume losing flow capability). As
outlined below, mounting the gage in the cockpit where I can see it would
provide
more valuable information:

Hi Bill,
We just mounted a fuel pressure gage under the hood. To mount one in the
cockpit would require some conversion unit from PEGASUS mounted under the hood.
They do not want fuel running into the cockpit.
There is practically no room under the hood. There are so many gages in the
cockpit now that I would have to mount it where I would have to stretch my
neck to see it. I would then run off of the track. It would be more valuable
by
indicating in the cockpit where I could see it.
