So i have my pyro installed and im getting my boost gauge later this week after i plug my new ats into my idi, wondering if you guys have any ideas (pics are great!) for gauges?
What do your gauge setups look like?

Looking forward to what other people have done in '80-'86 trucks with air conditioning for a 3" gauge. This is 460 truck, no AC so perfect locations in dash. IDI with AC has a few gauges below the dash but terrible to actually see them.

I like the dash one. I'm probably too short for a quad pillar pod. Lol

You really can't go wrong with pillar mounts, especially since you have a OBS , which means they make models specifically for your truck. In my bricknose, I installed a 3-gauge pod for an OBS (Autometer) that I had to modify slightly to fit. It houses coolant temp, boost, and EGT. Below and to the left of the ashtray, I have an oil pressure gauge.

I made this a few years ago for my 89 crewcab.

Bill,
How hard is the top gauge to see? I am tall, but it still seems like it is really up there by visor. Also, did you have the grab handle there? My Ex has one and would hate to loose it..... my tilt column is still nice and tight since no one pulls on the wheel to get in.....

I'm only 5'-7", have no problem seeing any of the gages. There was no grab handle on the A-Pillar in my 99. I have to use the steering wheel to pull myself up into the seat. I've had this 99 since 08, tilt column is still tight. Polio took all the muscle out of my right knee, 60 yrs ago. I weigh 160.
