Hi Folks,
I have been racking my brains on where to put some gauges (to read things like oil temp, egt's ect.) in my GU and just today stumbled accross a 3 gauge A Pillar mounted pod. That's the solution to my where to put these gauges, now my brain's working on what gauges to put in this cluster (sounds expensive already haha).
I have an inclination to get a pyro for egt's that mounts on the steering colomn, ala Roachie's setup. With this in mind what are the next most important gauges other people would suggest to be important?
Remembering there is mounts for 3 more gauges via this A Pillar pod.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
Trevor.

Gi Day Trevor.
A long time ago, (longer than I care to remember) I was a speedway sprint car driver.
We didn't use gauges, (just large RED LIGHTS and LOUD alarms)
If you are busy, and who isn't ? gauges just don't cut it.
Go for:
1\.Low Oil pressure
2\.Low coolant
3\.High coolant temp.
4\.Low on ice or VB alarm
Others will have many different priorities, ie: #4 to #1 !

Thanks Eddy,
I have thought whether too much info (in the hands of someone like me) is more dangerous than beneficial. As a control freak I would prefer the gauges I think.
