Wow, thanks for the help Kevin...

After being around the BOMBers for so long, I think its more work NOT to tinker with the 6.7. But it took me about 4 years of reading and purchasing to get the 12V to this level.

Think twins buddy. Big fat twin turbos and tons of black smoke clouding out the sky. Someone has to be first to be fast in a 6.7L

Last week I beating on the boys with my mighty hemi. You can't take that kinda of beat buddy.

J, theres a guy I know that has twins on his 6.7 and I am going to check it out for mine when I get down there. I bet I could get a discount for a 2 for 1 or maybe a group purchase. LOL
Propane is working real well on the 6.7 and so is the [censored].

Rest easy, you have lots of able and willing BOMBers here to get you some heat from your wife.
Having said that, maybe shes like my wife...she says...do it!

I was looking at the EV2's from Isspro.. they seem more like what I am used to..

Did the Dipricol gauges improve their lighting? The older ones were pretty poor IMHO... Thanks Doc!

Keeping it old school - atta a boy...



Yes, I believe DiPricol improved the lighting...the Optix have LED lighting.

and FWIW you can get the LED bulbs for the Isspro EV series as well.

I frigging hate my autometers! The gauges themselves are ok but the A-pillar is pathetic, pisses me off everytime I look at it. Fits terrible and not even close to matching the OEM. You couldn't pay me to buy another autometer product, I sent the retailer and autometer letters, phone calls everything with no replys about the crappy product. So tempted to tear them out and send them back and buy a better name like one of the ones posted above!

I've got autometers in both my trucks, and the gauge pods. They fit well, and the colour matches my dash pretty good. I plan on going with AM's when I get the twins running, and when I get the 12v in the old Ford.

My ISSO keep breaking on me. I'm changing out my ISSO and putting in the el-cheapo autometer. Hopefully they can last longer then the ISSO. I've ran 4 to 5 pressure boost gauges, few pyros and a few tranny gauges. None has survived, so I just buy cheap stuff and don't get attached to it. Maybe thats the problem.
