Want to buy a pyrometer

[Marks Garage]

Best deal on a pyrometer w/probe. I need this for my deuce. Its a hercules turbo diesel. I would also like to get one for my 1990 c350 w/7.3. Thanks

Well,the Autometer won't work on a little Deuce Coupe.Atleast mine wouldn't.Gotta have power and Autometers don't like 24 volt systems(28Volt charging).I think the Issopro's don't require power input to get a reading so they should work.

I ordered my guages thru eguages .com and they are isspro, I live close to Isspro, we have an account there and egauges was still 30 bucks less. and they shipped from portland Isspro. Gotta love internet shopping

The Isspro EV gauges may have an electrical feed; not certain. BTW, I compared the price on egauges.com to the price at DPS, and DPS was cheaper by a fair margin when you add in the price of the thermocouple and the wire lead (the thermocouple and the wire lead come as a "kit" with the gauge on DPS for $120).

Personally, I never cared for Autometers...they seem too "ricer" to me...that's just a personal preference, though

Cheapest price I found when I was looking, was BD.
They're made by isspro, but have a little BD badge on them.
I can't remember the exact cost, but I do remember they were
way cheaper than the other stores I was looking at.
They come with a black face as well, if that matters.

Oh, it'll work fine, just work with autometer and rig up a resistor to get the voltage down to 12v.

I recently put a VDO pyrometer in my 88 F250, and I am not completely happy with it. It seems to be a lot slower to reflect the egt than my Banks, or the Westach that I have in my other trucks. I don't think it is due to installation, but if somebody has one of these and it is quick, let us know.

How many batteries and what voltage are they? I had an M38A1 jeep with 24v system and it used 2-12v batteries. I just wired all my aftermarket electrical across 1-12v batt and all was fine.

I like to use only self powered pyrometers, as voltage fluxuations can affect the accuracy of the other types. If a pyrometer is slow to respond, it may be too far away from the manifold.

I have 2- 12 volt batterys and run my 12volt assessorys off that. So thats not a problem. Thanks for the help guys.
