Autometer Z series. Got the pyro and boost gauges for $75 from a friend of mine who put a programmer on his '02 7.3 instead and didn't need them. The pyro alone costs about $150 so I got a great deal even having to buy the probe separate.

I know. Started with 6637 and downpipe, now PHP chip, Stage I's, 4" exhaust, gauges...
I think I'm done with go-fast parts for now. Once I move back to Oregon I'll be getting ready to do my ZF5 swap and a 4x4/Dana 60 swap.

Evan, did you buy the doble pod as it is? or did you cut a bigger one?. Other question did you take off the leather cover of the steering wheel and did you paint it or it comes in that black shine?

The double pod came as it is, it's a Glowshift pod about $16 plus shipping.

The steering wheel is how it was when I bought it, minus a cheap crappy steering wheel cover with dragons on it that the P.O. had on there.

I really don't know what happened with it. It's not painted, has little finger grooves on the back, not as thick as I'd like it... Never really thought about the leather being missing from it, but now remembering my dad's '96 F250 it did have the thicker leather on it.

I had a camo cover on mine for a while and it was pretty tight. Some are tighter than others though.
I want one of the nice thick leather Ford Racing covers...
