I wasnt sure either lol ... i assumed jackshaft though.

The answer its that its not a plug and play kit. It doesnt work with truck accessories. It can be made to work under the hood of a truck with minimal mods, but its not a 'bolt on'

I decided to go with Tanabe gauges...just ordered them - Boost, Wideband and Oil Temp. as they didn't have fuel. I hope they're quality gauges!

I wouldn't be worried about oil temp in a non turbo setup. To each his own.

I would have chosen oil pressure but it was 50$ more. Plus I figured since I already have that gauge on my instrument panel, why not save a few bucks and get the temp. They have a very limited selection

I would have picked guages that offered fuel pressure.

I hear ya, I REALLY wanted the Prosport EVO digital ones in the link I posted earlier, but they only came in 60mm and I literally looked for days online and the only pillar pod made for 60mm is a "universal" model which looks like crap. Oh well, since these gauges are pretty new, I'm hoping they come out with a fuel pressure one.

I like the style of those gauges. Odd they have an oil pressure and not a fuel pressure as it is the same hardware, just a different label on the gauge face. Really if you wanted, you could get the oil pressure gauge and monitor fuel pressure with it.

Me too, I wanted a good quality digital gauge that looks cool. These seemed to fit the bill except for the FP...but that's a good idea if it will work. I'll call them tomorrow to see if I can swap them out.
