I was thinking about the upper frame of the windshield. Like above and to the left of the rear view mirror.

Does anyone make a 3 pod guage pillar for a hardtop F-body? The only ones I find are for T-tops.

Cablebandit: how do you like the eboost 2? Are you taking advantage of the diff mapping features using a speed density tune or ar you using a basic maf tune? If you are not doing speed density, what featues of the eboost 2 are you using? I had a manual boost gauge and wanted to go with this one to better control boost all around but mainly boost drop off through the rpm band. Plus I want to do two different tunes for the street and the track with race gas. Let me know. Thanks- Mike.

i don't know if this is relevant, but i've got a 4" lift off cowl hood that goes all the way to the windshield in my 70 chevelle, i put all of the gauges under the cowl where i can see them thru the windshield. when it's dark you cant see them, even inside the car; until you turn on the lights and here they come! it looks so badass it's unbelievable. an added bonus is having an interior with no gauges in it but the stock ones.

I'm assuming you mean wideband b/c an A/F is a waste of money. the display for my wideband is a small box that is mounted to the steering column. also I'm working on mounting gauges at the front of the console where the cig lighter and little pocket are
