I actually just ordered a 2 1/16 vacuum/boost gauge and a dualA-pillar mounted gauge pod. They gauge is an Autometer ultra-lite, it was affordable and should work well.

Go to the Autometer site....they have a really cool 'gauge search' feature. Better yet, give them a call...they are really knowledgable and can answer all your questions....at least they did when I bought mine
