Interesting idea, can we get a better picture, and exactly why you are running this? do you have a fuel injection set up or something....where did you put the o2 sensor?

thanks guys, not hard... took a summit gauge part#SUM-G2986 and riped it open and cut the smoked lens to fit were seatbelt lens was then glued the gauge in to the gauge housing, had to tuck it under the temp gauge a little and you cant see the "air fuel" light...it sits back away from lens so when it's off you cant see it, added a switch so only on when i need to see it

Great tuning idea. Come spring, this car, I'm just going to run wires up to a ohm gauge(multimeter) to tune. Figure once I have it, it is not going to change a lot in my conditions.
