I have seen a few other members who have installed the dual sender unit by using an extension hose from the stock fitting location under the dist.

I am ordering the dual sender unit from the bird

And while I am at it, I assume that I will only need a 80 PSI sender & gauge for a 4, right (not the 150 PSI)?
