A factory "twin" pyro from a early 70's log truck with a 12v-71 Detroit. This will be sweet in my idi once I get er wired up!

Interesting. Suppose it monitors both cylinder banks?

It does monitor both banks. I could get my hands on the 12-71 but I don't really need a 3000lbs backyard sound machine at the moment lol. Well......the lady friend doesn't need one would be a better way a putting it.

Where would the probes be for it? In the valve covers? cylinder heads or another part?

Equally important, what probes would you use? As I recall, the gauges are calibrated for specific probes. That being the case, you would have to find the probes for this gauge.
If you're lucky, it uses type K thermocouples. If that's the case, nearly any one you find will work, and not be terribly expensive ($40 or so at egauges.com).

I've seen twin pyros for aviation on evilbay for some pretty decent prices and wondered what it would take to make them work on a pickup.

That's Is sweet. I got lucky with my pyro, got it from an old freightliner and ordered a cheap "universal" coupler from eBay. So far seems pretty accurate.

Hook it up so one reads pre turbo and one aft turbo

The bummer is that it starts at 500*. If it were more graduated you could use one for intake air temp.
