Isspro located in Portland Oregon for either electric or mechanical. I have the EV mechanical and they are just fine...

I'm a big fan of Isspro's gauges.

Ken at DPS sells them, and I've found his prices to be less expensive than anyone else out there.

Just remember that he can be difficult to get a hold of; you just have to keep trying. Once you do get a hold of him, though, he does a real good job of taking care of you ;Sweet

Well, I got my Oil Pressure/Water Temp guages from Wesburg Mfg. They build and sell Westach guages which look and work great. They can be had in 2 inch dual guage combinations and single guage or they can be built as 3 inch large face guages. On my old 84, I had a dual EGT/Boost in the large face. That guage works a lot better (faster response) than my VDO pyro on my 1988.

Just my thoughts.

In the minority I guess, but I like my digital VDO's! Not sure though about boost and EGT. I have a dual sweep Westach EGT plumbed into the right and left bank on my NA 6.9 and it is kind of neat to see the difference in left and right bank!

I guess I'm in the minority too. Although I've never used them, I'm not a big fan of Isspro's appearance. Maybe I just haven't seen all their offerings. I use Auto Meter Z series.

That's ironic...that's exactly how I feel about Autometers. To me, they feel like they should be in a lowered Honda Civic with a spoiler and a coffee can for an exhaust pipe, not a diesel truck. But, that's just me ;)

sle, how big of a difference do you see between the two banks?
