Let's see your gauges!
I searched but didn't find anything like this so...
I am looking into guages and seeing there are a quite a few different ways of mounting them and different brands i'd like to see what you guys got!
please list if you can the brand/series/type ect...
also if after buying/installing what you have would you do anything different if you were to do it again? after some pricing around and seeing the cost involved I want to do this only one time!
I want (I think) pods with guages... EOT, ECT, EGT, boost, trans temp, Fuel pressure, batt volts.

I have DiPricol Optix in a 4 gauge A pillar pod. They're out of business now so that's not an option.
I also run a ScanguageII in the cubby. Best bang for the buck you'll find for a 6.0l.
The ScanguageII displays EOT, ECT, voltage, ICP, FICM V, fan speed, tranny temp, and a whole bunch of other things for the price of a single quality analog gauge.
I'm going to get rid of the DiPricols eventually and run Isspro Performax instead. Only analogs i'll need are fuel pressure and EGT.

I got tired of having a much larger blind spot to the left so I switched to this. Edge CTS, not the programmer and can monitor all in one screen. $450

Still using the older model Edge Insight. It includes everything you mentioned, except for fuel pressure. Hoping to add something for fuel pressure in the coming months. Not sure how yet.

I'm using the Autometer Phantom series. I like the look of them a lot. I've got Fuel psi, oil psi, HPOP psi, and pyrometer on A-pillar and Boost, Air psi, and Diff temp over the mirror. I also use the CTS insight which keeps an eye on oil temp, coolant temp, trans temp, volts, and accelerator position. Got to see it all!! 
Good luck with your choices. There are a lot of options.

Hi everyone. I am getting a new ScanGauge 2 for my 03 350. I have no idea where to mount it. Any ideas on this would be really appreciated. Oh, and pics would be great too.
Thanks and God Bless, Cory

Auto Meter Phantoms on the pillar for me. I put a single pole three throw toggle switch on my trans temp so that I can also use it to check oil temp and rear diff temp.

great write up on the install!!
I really like these guages, I think they would match the factory white guages I have in my truck nicely!
