    I put Autometer gauges in my truck. I just don't like the look of digital gauges. Teltek is pretty pricey too.

    How much did you spend on them? Do they have mechanical guages?

    The fuel pressure gauge was like $225 and it's electronic. The mechanical version is much cheaper, $69 or something like that, but I don't want high pressure fuel inside the cab.

    The boost gauge was $60-70...

    Check summitracing.com -- they carry the whole line and their site is easier to see what you want than Autometer's site.

    My speedometer works, but there was a time it was off calibration and I would go by my Garmin's (gps)speed and mileage.

    I would suggest a digital gauge for air ride suspension pressure gauge.

    Isspro will have most of the cable parts.

    With your truck being a big cam a normal fuel pressure gauge won't do if you are wanting to run one.
