This one is quite a bit more expensive but provides a lot of info and has a wide band sensor. I am going to get the one with the rpm sensor. This should fill my needs and if I want to expand I can.

Well i got 2 of the Edelbrocks with the exh mounting rings installed on the collector but plugged with no place to put the LED boxes. I like the clock hole idea but thats where my new fuel press gauge lives (electric of course).
I like the Edel colored LED's though because i can just glance at them and tell where the A/F is without much effort. And they really need they're own little doghouse on the hood in front of the steering wheel but man who's got that kind'a time?
Also have a nice AutoMeter vac gauge that i calibrated but no mount for that either. Yes the hood is were that on belongs too - right next to a nice big tach with shift light.
Ok, ok i'll shut up now and quite dream'n out loud.

Good night. cardo0

Default Here's the one I have...

It's analog and I mounted it where the clock used to be. It matches the other gauges fairly well....but it's pretty much worthless.

I'd look into a wideband O2 system if I was to do it again.

When I had a carb I tried using it for tuning, but it really didn't help me (either that or I'm terrible at fine adjusments). Now I just use it for fun to monitor what the ECM is doing.
