does the steering wheel block your view of the gauges? i have my dp tuner on the flat spot to the right of the column and i regret putting it there because the wheel is directly in the way of seeing it while driving. lesson learned

I can see the important range of each gauge when driving, and can see the whole gauge if I lean forward a little.

That is a pretty sweet install, a bit basic for the gauges but pretty cool. what year of truck is that on?

You need an adapter, and most places that sell the sensor will offer one. The sensor is 1/4" NPT and the threads on the fuel bowl are metric.

Sorry, but if you have to wait until your next paycheck to buy a $12 part, the 6.0L isn't for you.

cartmanea,
Very nice job and the truck is well done.
Where did you get the pod that is on the pillar?
Do you recall the part number? I like that one and would
like to get one.
Thanks
Sean

Yeah, I felt a little bad after posting it, but dude it's $12. That's less than 3 gallons of diesel.

It's an AutoMeter single gauge pod. The handle holds it in place and it fits well. I didn't get it at Summit, but here's their link: Auto Meter 15307 - Auto Meter Pillar Gauge Pods - Overview - SummitRacing.com
