Pyrometer

Does anyone know if it is possible to fab up a homemade pyro? I'm talking getting a probe, the thermocouple wiring, tapping the manifold, and finding an individual gauge, etc. I'm curious if it is possible to do this and save money by doing it myself rather than paying for the whole kit.

Thanks,

Dawson

its possible but you wont save any. the components amount to more than the kit.

^^^^ Loch is right. I priced everything out one time and it came to like 170$ish..... And you can buy a autometer pyro for like 130$ complete with everything.
