wow that looks awsome.looks like im gonna go broke cause i gotta have one! :cool: :cool:
Don't worry you won't go broke on the pod itself, it is only $25. ;)It is the other stuff that adds up quick.

Fuel Pressure Gauge = $75
FPG Sending Unit = $24
Fuel Line Fittings = $25

The switches I added were $15 for those and some heat shrink tubing.

They do sell single gauge pods also. I was told that my harlan light is WAY too bright to have at eye level. So that is out. I have had that thing over a year and a half and have still not installed it. :)
I like the look of the dual pods, and i might not be able to do the MSD light in mine, if i point it anywhere other than toword the dash i damn near blind myself

Let me know when you have them and it is right.
Thanks.
Just test fit the -4AN union, and it screws on perfectly. :)

Looks Great Scorp! I wish someone would make a full molded gauge pillar. I talk to the people at Lo-Tek but they are not sure if they are going to make one. That's all the info I could get from them they have the single one but it's an add on also there web site is http://gaugepods.com/ I have got nice gauge pillars and a t-top one for my Monte Carlo SS made very nice. I always tell JD he needs a fuel pressure gauge :) but he likes the stock look O well.

FYI for those who find this thread... the -4AN fitting is correct, but at least on my sending unit, it was 1/8" NPT - not 1/4" So I had to get a reducer from 1/4"NPT to 1/8"NPT. I also needed another 1/4" female to female and a 1" long 1/4" male to male nipple to get it away from the vacuum ports on the back of my superram intake.

Yes, it is 1/8" NPT, not 1/4" NPT on the sender. I don't know why I didn't update this thread when I realized my mistake.
