Looks like the hot rodders that install absolute pressure gauges tend to
use aircraft surplus. You could always buy your own sensor and add a
suitable meter of your choosing for the output.

Re: Manifold pressure off MAP sensor?
14.7 more or less, or 29.92 Hg or 1013 millibar at standard temperature
and mean sea level.
Could probably be gotten from one of those old center reading boost
gauges with a custom faceplate and calibration.
