What gauges to buy for the dash?
Hey guys, I want to buy some gauges for the inside of my FC ie: Pillar mount or center panel mount. What gauges do you guys feel are the most important to have? oil Temp? Electrical? Temp? A/F mix, or boost? and are they easy to install?

The stock water temp gauge is actually more of an idiot light than a full sweep gauge...it doesn't really respond to temp variations till it's too late.
The stock pressure sending unit is getting long in the tooth by now (unless it's been recently replaced) and cannot be trusted.
Mine shows between @10psi at idle up to about 50 or so while my new pressure gauge reads about 30psi at idle and 80 or so under load...quite a difference.

I've never seen a set of these installed in an FC, but these are a good option for all of your Temp Gauges. They even come in red to match the stock interior lighting too!
