Addicted to eaton Posted May 19, 2010 Report Share Posted May 19, 2010 you need trans temp. Volt, And BOOST/VAC I have a/f ratio (worthless, 3pod) Volts, (worth while 3 pod) Boost/vac ( LOVE IT 3 pod) Oil press, (Nice to have HUD POD) Oil temp, (VERY VERY Nice to have Hud pod also) trans temp, (Most critical gauge, Center console) scan gauge for KR. Something you dont need. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BXX Posted May 19, 2010 Report Share Posted May 19, 2010 He has no need for voltage.. his cluster will illum the battery light really quickly when there is an issue. However if it between that and a friggen vacuum gauge then I suppose the voltage is the lesser of two evils. Trans Temp Oil Temp ??? Or just sell the pod and profit???

91LuminaEuro Posted May 19, 2010 Report Share Posted May 19, 2010 great work jake! im jumping into this late, but it looks good!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BXX Posted May 19, 2010 Report Share Posted May 19, 2010 autometer autoguage are 45 and is it an isolated type gauge? Ive seen some where the line off the fuel line to the gauge holds fuel directly to the gauge. This is stupid and dangerous should anything go wrong, fuel will be leaking in the interior. And once again, a fuel pressure gauge isnt needed. If you ever think you have a pressure issue, a decent Actron fuel pressure tester would be better and more useful in the future.

jaybaum96 Posted May 19, 2010 Report Share Posted May 19, 2010 im actually using bondo too on my gauge pillar, it looks identical to yours. The only problem im having is deciding if i wanna have it texturized at all to match the other pillar. What kind of primer/paint did you use on yours? Looks good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldscsc Posted May 19, 2010 Report Share Posted May 19, 2010 Trans temp is a good idea. I think you're crazy if you don't put an oil pressure gauge in there though as the one in the cluster is a fake. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
