I would keep the gauges together. You can buy a pillar setup that holds 2 gauges. Dont spread them out. Thats my $.02

i bought a 2 gauge pod and then added a single one on top of that. it looks clean and i get lots of compliments give that a try

Saw some one the other day put one in the far left vent (one next to the drivers door). You can mount em on the steering columb but that will block your odometer and warning lights. I would put it on the pillar with your other gauge.

well would i always need a visual of an air/fuel gauge and a pyrometer....because if not i could always build something custom into my glove box or somthing

You can put three in the center vents.
Or if you have an aftermarket radio you can put the in the space that remains there.

I did mine like this:



It went into the vent by the driver's door. The nice part is that the vent still works.

that looks good....how long did it take and how exactly did you do it?

i think im going to take my ashtray/cig lighter out and build in somehting that will hold 2 or 3 gauges depending on how much space i have...anyone have any ideas on what kind of materials to make it out of...i was thinking possibly like a plexiglass or plastic..

try a new south steering column mount gauge pod... you can get them at pure motorsport. www.puremotorsport.com

It took me about 45mins to cut out the fins and make it look nice. I took my time.

Here's the plan I followed:
