Took me a few hours today but i Got it all up and Working, No real issues, First I cut, bent and flared the existing steel fuel line used a -6 nut and bushing, You have to be sure and flare 37 degrees fo an/jic fittings, I did manage to chug 6 or so Bud Lites while I was at it

Then put the Mock up panel up with the mounts I built held it in place with a small magnet while I welded it in place

Here is the Panel bolted up and connected to the lines, I used -6 Braided lines I made at work to go to the FF

I bet it don't hurt being apart of Rusty Wallace Racing.....Can you imagine?

More Power too ya, Brother!

1st class install on everything....That CB fit in that CD pocket like a glove!.....Nice.

How many different options can you monitor with that elctronic gauge......What's it called?

That truck is gonna last you a lomg time, with all those preventive/perfomance modifications :agreed::thumbsup:

Well Yes Working for Rusty has its advantages, The CB in the CD pocket took quite abit of Grinding but it was worth it, Im really happy with how the truck is Turning out, If you could have seen it In March 2010 when I got it, well lets just say it was a Plumbing Truck with 200k on it and blown up Headed for the crusher, I got it for a song, Its been alot of work but now I have something that I have resurected and learned a ton from You guys Thanks, Ill keep it for a very long time, The Gauge is made by Auber Instruments, this one is just for EGT, But they make alot of different ones

Well considering your skill level, thats a great thing to hear....and it goes both ways, we get to hear about the latest in product and material improvments, from what is passed down to the professional side of the industry (Nascar), I think you said that a lot of the new materials being used are from NASA and other high tech programs, as their materials are improving....and so goes the cycle.

I was under the impression that the "Auber gauges" can monitor more than one function at a time, but maybe I was thinking of a different product, something along the lines of scangauge.....Guess I was wrong.

Again, great, clean, professional install on everything, waiting to see what project/mod is next on your list....Thanks for Sharing.
