Minium I would suggest is - Boost - EGT (pyro) and Tach. I have used Auto Meter and had good luck with them.

Pyro and Boost to get started. A Fuel pressure guage also comes in handy when messing with the fuel system.

thats a good start. but if its an auto transmission in these trucks, a trans temp gauge is a MUST.

yea next what i need is a fuel pressure guage and tranny temp but what kind of fuell psi gauges are u guys running, mechanical or electric, i guess what i'm asking is which is better. :humm:

i have a 0-20 psi gauge its a crappy one from kragen auto parts. but the one i plan on getting is a 0-15. i believe anything over 15 is bad for the pumps so no need to go that high anyways.

as for what kind, i got my eyes on the autometer ultra lites those are what im ordering this week
