What guages to get for LT1? want to do a 2 gauge pod set up maybe 3 later.. i know a narrow band air/fuel gauge then what?? i looked into transmission but i wouldnt see why i'd need one of those..... Im gonna do nitrous maybe a year or so from now so ill replace whatever the second is with nitrous pressure and the first with a wideband most likely

If you get a wideband then sure, otherwise the only real use for an a/f gauge is to sit there and look cool. It can give you a very general indication of things but is not useful at all for tuning or anything like that.
As for some useful suggestions I would say fuel pressure, trans temp, oil temp are some good ones.

I installed a tranny temp guage when I put the TH400 in and its been very useful. It gives you a very good idea of when a particular driving style is getting too hard on the parts.
