How to install fuel pressure gauge?Please help asap

Hey how hows it going...I need some help i got a 06 cobalt SS 2.4 with the zzp supercharger kit and all supporting mods...I just ordered a boost/vac and fuel pressure gague and pod.We'll the boost gauge is simple thats a cake walk but i cant figure out how to install the fuel pressure gauge..Well i was looking in the engine bay and it looks like it can be hooked up to the fuel rail but it needs a special nut with two different thread patterns on each side...Would it be easier to hook it up in back of the car by the fuel tank or is there another trick..Its the auto meter fuel pressure gauge from zzp.I was hoping to get it done 2morrow morning so any help would be great.The gauge comes with a sensor and the wiring.If anyone one has hooked one up and knows how to do it please lead me in the right directon cause i couldnt find a write up...Thanks again guys!

not sure on the LE5's but on the LSJ, the fuel rail fitting from OTTP will help. you can install an adapter to fit the fitting on your fuel pressure sensor, which most are 1/8" NPT

I Just installed one on my LSJ, I installed the Fuel presser sensor kit from Aeroforce to my interceptor.
I posted the basics of how I did it under Yay my fuel pressure works thread. Im not sure how the LE5 is configured but you may could do a similar set up. I wouldn't image that they would be significantly diffrent, if the auto parts store Fuel presser testers are all pretty much standardised.

Let me know if you have any questions,
