Fuel rail pressures?

Fuel rail pressures?
I see alot of posts concerning rail pressures, but I've never seen anyone set a baseline as to what is actually safe and what is not. Can anyone give me an idea of exactly what you want to see and what you don't want to see as far as these pressures go. And while I'm at it, does anyone make a gauge or know of a way to monitor these?

You want it to maintain 20k at WOT. Anything less, and you are losing power. As far as limits, there are varying opinions. I ran 25-26k through my stock injectors for quite a while. They key is to have a secondary filter set up that filters down to 2 microns. Thay way everthing flows through the injector tip without a problem. I know of a truck that runs 30k and has spiked as high as 33k.
