Most will have their own opinion about what gauges are the best. I liked the look of the Autometer Ultra Light, and also wanted a quality electric FP gauge, cuz I did not want to mess w/the isolator, or run diesel in the cab. I have not had any problem w/my gauges.

I use westech, and part of that is because they are the only ones I've seen that are available in duals. I added to my three gauge pod, making it a 4 gauge pod. I wanted a second gauge to moniter oil psi after my run in with the stock sending unit.
1: Trans. temp. / engine coolant temp.
2: EGT / Boost
3: Oil PSI
4: Fuel PSI

Thanks for the info. I was wondering if anyone had ever had problems with their elec. FP gauge, because that is what I was thinking about getting.

Yeah, there are problems with the senders......IMHO, go mechanical - they are superior and you wont be sorry.

I went with the Di Pricol's. White Faced looks really good. Only problem is the pyro fogs up if the lights are on on a humid day and you have the windows down.
