Well, I finally decided where I wanted to put the Aeroforce gauge in the WS6. I was looking for a way to make the guage look like a factory deal. Actually took quite a bit of time to custom make all the little pieces to fit this guage in the drivers side A/C vent.

I then proceeded to figure out my dimension and cut-out the carbon trim ring using a scroll saw at low speed. This peace actually sits down inside of the A/C vent hole and hold the guage from the front:


Cut-out a matching piece for the rear of the A/C vent made from 3/4 MDF:


Then made a backing plate for the guage out of 1/8" flat aluminum and then polished the item:


Pic of the Aeroforce scan guage. It looks at 27 different items on a LT1 through the OBD II port. I purchased one of the last special edition PONTIAC Aeroforce guages When you initially start the car after 5 seconds or so the PONTIAC logo shows up on the screen and then the guage starts.

The final pic of the finished product. I can't believe how well this item looked as a finished product. If anyone has any questions on doing any of this please PM me for details. This was a pretty tedious process to get it to look factory, but well worth it in the end.

 

Thats a pretty sweet setup. I never heard of the gauge before, where can I find more info about it.

Lets see some pics of it in the car too.

 

Looks a little crooked! Very very nice silverram!

 

Very nice craftsmanship!!!

 

Nice work man.

Does this guage work like a scanmaster?

 

Nice work, what does the guage do?

 

Thanks for all the comps on the work !

PipesT/A: It was just a little crooked I adjusted it just for you

LT1BRN: The guage is alot like the oldschool LT1 scanmaster that alot of guys would mount in their LT1 camaro A/C vent to the right of their gauge pod. The Aeroforce Interceptor guage measures 27 different item by simply plugging into the OBD II port and you supply it with a 12v switched source.
Some of the items it monitors: O2's, Knock Retard, battery voltage, TPS, TPS angle, MAF Lbs, Coolant, IAT, etc. to name a few. This is a very cool guage with alot of useable info. You can also do a recorder mode that will record up to 45 seconds, so you can review you run at the drag strip. It also can be used as DTC (diagnostic trouble code) identifier & remover.

 

badass, love custom work like that, very rewarding when someone comes up with their own thing.

oh yeah, whats a Scan gauge used for?

 

thats great man, and thank you for the information.

where can I get it from and who much would it set me back?

 

Unfortunately it won't work on an OBD1 LT1 car (94-95). It's OBDII only ('96+).

Looks like PFYC has them. Pretty cool gauge.

 

ooh, so its of no use to me, Mine is a 94 so OBDI is what I have.

Still a fantastic gadget adn amazing install, thumps up.

 

looks very sharp, I got one of them too and love it. Nice job

 

Oops, I forgot to mention it's only for OBD II

 

Where do I get one???? Would it show trans temperature?

 

I believe New Era performance sells the guages (I think there a vendor on this site ) and the transmission temp feature may or may not be a feature. I have a 6 spd car.

 

I have a 95z and i have the primitive version of obd2. You can hook up a Tech2 to it fine and it has the obd2 hook up, but i guess it doesn't give quite as many readings. Anybody know if I would be able to use that gauge???
