What the heck is a snubber? Do you mean like a needle valve for a FP gauge?

When I think of a snubber, I think of a ppinion snubber to control axle wrap. If that is the case, you can use a coil spring, a tapered piece of rubber, or get creative.

I used a snubber in my boost line to keep my gauge from rattling

Some people use snubbers or needle valves. I have had great luck with my needle valve, it's just like a water shut off valve but it's 1/8 fitting you just crack open enough to get a pressure reading but will stop the rattling and another benefit with going with the needle valve is you can cut the fuel off to your gauge if you ever had a leak or something. Just my 2 cents

'Nuther needle valve user here. Just need to open it a crack to get good FP readings without the needle bouncing all over and if I ever had a leak in the cab (which I did), I can close it all the way. Got mine at NAPA.
