I always thought a engine coolant pressure gauge would be nice--detect the overheating problem before it happens.

Air/fuel ratio (wideband) and fuel pressure is useful.

I want to make a custom console with fuel, volt, oil pressure, coolant temp, and vaccum. Lets see some pics so I can get an idea of how to make mine.

I'm in the same boat, pretty much decided either a trans temp or fuel pressure gauge is the way I'm going. Fuel pressure would be nice to know when I hit the "GO2" button! On the other hand trans temp is good to know all the time, especially with a 4500 stall!
