Thanks for the info, Jerry and MattG!

MattG, what do you charge for the RK Sport pillar? And, do you sell it without any gauges?

Thanks.

p.s. As mentioned above, they sell modied A/F gauges at the following site to be accurate at full throttle. http://gadgetseller.com/gauges/modifiedproducts.htm

Matt got his pillar from us at the Vette Wrench.We get them from RK Sport.If you want give Brian a call @ 630-820-7400 and see if he can get you one.We can probably have it drop shipped directly to you if you want.

Do you have any pictures of the pillar or is it the same one that was in that picture posted by shftn6? I'm curious, how hard is it to replace the a-pillar? How hard is it to wire up the gauges? Wouldn't I need to rip apart the entire dash to wire them up? I'd really like to do this, but I'm afraid I'd mess my car up.

What's a good fuel pressure gauge?

I have the a-pillar gauge installed.
No problem.
All wires can be routed under the dash, so no need to remove big things.

Do you need to cut a hole through the firewall to get to the engine bay for the A/F gauge or is the connection available inside the car?

No! You can rout them where the stock stock wiring goes through.
No big deal.

As others said bevore!! If you wanna install a A/F gauge be sure to get the recalibratet one´s from gadgetseller....the stock Autometer are useless for WOT !!!!!!!!!!
