Looking at the Autometer 2-gage pod (p/n 12212). Intend to run an oil temp gage and water temp gage. Which brand/style gages are you guys/gals running? Hate to ask "less filling tastes great" questions but was curious about the particular gage version. For instance, the Autometer oil temp gage (140-300 deg F range) costs anywhere from $37.95 to $130.95. Any reason to look at another gage brand like Stewart-Warner or Nordskog? I'm not sure I'd want a digital gage (a'la Cyberdyne) but maybe so?

I have a 2 gauge pod. Sometimes I'll catch my ring finger on it, if I palm the wheel with my left hand in the parking lot. Jams that sucker good when I do that... If you ever plan to palm the wheel, make sure the pod is setup so your hand will go between the gauges, not into one of them.
Autometer phantom. Fuel pressure and boost. I prefer an analog sweep to a digital. The electric version of a gauge is quite a bit higher than the mechanical version of the same guage. That's probably why you're seeing such a big variance in price. |
