Was wondering if anyone has seen these but, specifically for the 379.
Here is a pic of a universal one:

A 379 pillar is not laid back as much as a pickups would be harder to see. Plus what gauges do you need that you don't have a spot for?
-
I wanted to add a fuel temp gauge. Plus when I bought the truck it looked like the previous owner got rid of the air filter restriction gauge and replaced it with a Teltek outside temp gauge. I picked up a new air filter restriction gauge and thought if I can get an a-pillar pod I'd put the fuel temp along with the fuel pressure and fuel filter restriction that are in the dash and put the air filter restriction gauge with the outside temp and maybe an inside temp gauge in the pod.

Try Bullydog, they sell programers for big trucks, maybe they have what you are looking for also.
Luwi67 Thanks this. -
I had one of those for my ford pickup. But never heard of one for a pete and can't see how it could be, considering the pillar has almost no angle on it.
Not sure why you wouldn't have room in your dash, since I have those guages and more in my 379 dash. -
They do make a 3gauge pod designed to fit on the overhead console of a pickup though you could prolly trim it to fit on the dash or under it.

Zero room in the dash for gauges.

I see you went to Glowshift's website. I use their gauges in my Mustang. They are quite nice as you can choose between 7 different colors of the face. As for the pod you can use the dash triple gauge pod. I installed one in the mustang and they can be sanded under to fit flush. Could work for you truck rather then use the pillar .

I installed the glowshift gauges and pillar pod in my pickup. Nice looking but gauges started going bad in approx 2-3 years. Kinda disappointing
