I had these gauges sitting around fro almost a year, and finally installed them (well 2 of the 4, so half). I put hte A/F Ratio meter and the Oil Pressure gauges in the pod on the pillar. The Tranny and Coolant temp gauges are going on the lower dash on the right of the steering wheel. Maybe I'll do that tomorrow. Here's a pic of the first two:

looks nice ;)
 






Nice. I was thinking about getting some of those, but I keep putting it off.
 






I think a lot of people are gonna try to race you thinking you have some serious mods done to your truck, they'd probably think you have boost gages for the "supercharger" lol. Nice though.....
 






Nice.. i like them

But that's why I have the Air/Fuel meter. The supercharger is coming soon... (well, the actual timing depends on the wife, so "soon" could actually be a long time :p )

But I am planning on a SC. I've pretty much done everything else that I can do other than nitrous, so my truck is actually pretty quick. The 33's have slowed it down a bit, but that's what gears are for.


Speaking of racing, I was at a stop light and an F-250 pulled up next to me. When it turned green, this guy (on what looked like 35, since they were quite bugger than mine), roared off the line . Smoked me bad. And I mean that literally. He must have had the propane injection, as he left a huge plume of black smoke. Diesels are damn fast! (or rather they can be)
 






Oh, and the boost guage will be mounted right on top of the steering column.
