A good oil pressure gauge, possibly EGT instead of an A/F, could get a fuel pressure gauge too.

Water Temp, Oil Temp, Oil Pressure, EGT Gauge and finally A/F Ratio. Here we go with the A/F Ratio's are garbage.

This Is what I have.

Cool, thanks. Just out of curiosity, where do you have all these gauges set up? I'm thinking the A/F and oil temps on the A-pillar, and the rest in the center dash somewhere.

I had a A/F and a water temp. I had them in a Autometer gauge pod (shitty fit on my 91) on the A-Pillar.
