Can anyone point me to where I can buy a quality flow/ pressure gage setup.

A dealership I do alot with has 13 locations and they share one. So yes I bet they are expansive. The psi gauge part is easy.

OTC brand tools offers one. it's price tag is high even compared to other large
mechanics tools.

The 50 gpm otc model is 2 grand.
The 75gpm OTC model is 2800.00

I can buy the Flow meter for 350 dollars and then I would have to add the pressure gauge and regulator.

I would rather buy one assembled so thats why I was asking.

Bailey Hydraulics has a 32gpm flow meter. I bought one several years ago and added an inline needle valve and a gauge to the port on the meter. It's been excellent. Not many guys have aneed for a 75 gpm unit. Here's a link to flow meter results in their catalog.

Those are similar to what I found.
I just feel like it would be in my best interest to have a way to check my equipment every so often to keep it performing it's best.
