I need suggestions on installing a fuel pressure gauge. I want to hook it up to the port on my BBK adjustable regulator. I don't know if the gauges come with any lines to run it to the port on the regulator. If not, what size lines should I buy? I want to buy an Auto Meter Ultra Lite or Phantom gauge. Should I buy mechanical or electric? Any suggestions on where to route it through the firewall? I guess 2 5/8" gauges should work, right?

Go with electric for sure. It is very unsafe and not NHRA legal to run a fuel line into the cab.

99% of the world's hot-rodders mount the fuel gauge either in the engine compartment or on/in the hood.
(best looking arguably is those that fit in a cowl hood)
while your at it slap an oil pressure gauge there too.
electric gauges are about $200, mechanical $40.
