Small update, got it mostly working now, just need to add the last few sensors and make a case for the controller and mount the screen. I’m just using an Arduino nano for now but it doesn’t have enough analog to digital inputs so I’ll be changing that out at some point. I probably have about $15 into the controller and $13 in the screen. If anyone wants to build one I would be happy to share the schematic and code if anyone is interested.

Note: this is just a prototype board so it looks pretty scary but it really isn’t, I would like to make a proper board one day when I find time and a place that will make them fairly cheap.
Temperatures seem pretty close to the auto meter gauge. Intake temp is usually a few degrees off from temp sensors that are submerged into liquid.

Ignore the strange “symbol” below the ACP, somehow something pushed on the screen wrecking that spot. I don’t have the Engine oil temp, transmission oil temp or exhaust back pressure sensors hooked up so ignore those for now and the fan saying inf rpm is because the engine isn’t running.
The fan seems to cycle on and off in stop and go traffic as needed to keep the ac pressure below 450psi, for a Crewcab I can freeze out people in the back while stopped.
Got the zf temp sensor welded up, just need to put some paint on it and put it on and run the wire up to the controller.
