I loved my Autometer guages in my old truck. Autometer warrantied any gauge no matter the age so I didn't mind spending the money. I had the electric fuel pressure gauge and the sending unit went after 2 years. They sent me a new one no questions asked and I even kept my old one. They didn't even want the old sending unit. Now that's a stellar company...

Yea the gauges aren't bad my issue is with the pillar. My mistake was buying from RPMoutlet first off(i've had a lot of problems with just buying the stuff there), and how Autometer won't return any of my complaints about the poor quality pillar. I will have to get a pic of it, it is terrible, they didn't even include the screw and I have had to put a bolt on there because I cannot find a bolt with a screw head to fit

I once hinted that my Isspro boost gauge had a rattle in it and got a PM from Isspro that they would replace it! I had AM in my previous truck and didn't like the lighting or the colors (ultralites), the pyro needed a flashlight to see it at night.
Anyhow, there are so many companies out there now with gauges, its hard to pick. I like the Isspros so far, hard to go back...

Lil dog, you gonna turn-off the 6.7L bad stuff with the smarty? Does that work? How about the injector thingy, they have go back into the same hole and the injectors are matched to the ecm?
I'm starting to warm-up to the new stuff again. How the tranny holding up? How many klicks you got on the beasty? Its just so much easier working on a new truck and ruin it. Than buy an old truck and fix it.

I haven't got my S67 yet. I have a list of goodies to get for it before stuff starts getting put on the shelf. I have only put about 2500 Km on it since I got it.. So far so good. It sure likes the highway better than town.

Just checking up on the test ride. So you haven't put in the bigger sticks or twinz yet? I want to see one of these truck just run on the smarty and see what kinda numbers they put up. How about the exhaust fix?

I'm glad things are getting fixed up nice on the 6.7L, I'm kinda warming up to. The interior in a Lam truck is top notch, you get the console in yours? Its almost getting too nice to so you actual want to use it as a truck. Thats when its nice to have a real truck handy. But the old school 1st gen are nice to. My wifey wont let me buy one of those. I found few gems out here on Vancouver Island this week. Its a tuff day in the office today. Might have to go and find patio today, and relax, and think about this some more.

I do like the interior. I have looked in a friends Frod and it was pretty nice to be honest.
The 97 is gonna go under the knife soon, clutch and tranny need a rebuild and making noises I don't like. Might have to get dirty. Having a shop do the tranny is looking more appealing.
