The two extra gauges which the Granatellis installed inside 63R1025, (The Hot Rod Magazine 1963 road test Avanti), registered supercharger pressure and .......?.......

Fuel pressure.

That one also had fuel pressure. I hope they engineered it better than what I have seen on other R3s. Totally incomprehensible to plumb fuel into the passenger compartment.  I reworked that R3 fuel pressure gauge with a  fuel pressure isolator (Moroso brand) and plumbed an inert silicon fluid to the gauge from it.

Yes Brad, I'm pretty sure 63R1025 has the scary setup which you describe.
