additional gauge suggestions


Recommended Posts

Doing some interior work to my truck and relocating my FP gauge to on top of the dash. Next to my BD X-monitor sits. Well actually I am going to try my hand and making a fiberglass pod and partially recess it into the dash.

Since I am doing this, I like to plan ahead.

So I will have the bd x monitor(boost,egt, tranny temp), and my FP gauge for additionals thinknig a 2nd boost gauge(for the twins later on), to read between the turbo stages, a dual airtemp gauge before and after the intercooler, and a diff temp gauge. Posted Image After some searching thinking about putting a scangauge in there. instead but what other "non required" gauges do you guys run. Might try to go for the airplane cockpit look. :)

If I could get the gauges in a mirror image I would mount them facing up into the dash so I could read the reflection in the winshield. Posted Image

The neatest set up I've seen inlet the guages into the upper dash bezel to the right of the steering wheel. I went as far as experimenting with turning plastic pipe so the guage would slide in & sit on a flange like the aforementioned set up. He used reinforced putty to form over the turned shells. I found the link to his photos: http://forum.mopar1973man.com/threads/3316-Steering-column-gauge-mount/page2?highlight=thebullet83
