I have been thinking about swapping guages out of my center console, but I like it the way it is. I also thought about the bolster dual guage setup, dont really care for it so much. Also considerd a quad guage etc, dont want to lay out the cash for that right now.

I want to add cht guage, oil pressure guage, and fuel pressure guage.

I was looking for pics of the dual, or triple guage holder that mounts under the dash. If you have a center console, I would really like to see those pics espically.

Thanks

Joseph

OK, after I detonated piston#4 on the back straight at VIR (even had flames briefly in the rear view mirror) I decided that I wanted maximum information on temps.
I've got 'em mounted above and below.
EGT 4 channel, Oil Pressure and CHT cyl#1 are on top mounted in a generic Summit 3hole holder reamed out a bit to accomodate the EGT head.
Down below is CHT cyl#2, clock, AFR, Oil Temp, Voltmeter. Admittedly it's difficult to scan all of them, but easy enough on the long straights to get the top three and the Oil Temp from below.
She's held together now for 12 track days--maybe I've finally got enough information...the most actionable was oil temp which was hitting 260F 'til I relocated the oil cooler--at 260 there's maybe 3psi oil pressure at idle! Now only hitting 240F but the weather is cooler also....
