Turbo 383 in a A-body Barracuda
Almost!
The -10an bung I ordered 2 weeks ago was lost in the mail. Vendor has sent a new one as of yesterday, Still no channel runs. Hours of searching for a pillar pod for my afr and boost gauge yeilded no results.
So, I decided to make one. I had some 2" pvc laying around and a few 4" couplers so I started cutting. The 52mm gauges fit nice and snug so no attaching issues. Cut a chunk of the coupler and used a quart paint can and a torch to get the right curve on the mount. Epoxied the two 2" pieces to the chunk of coupler. Used some evercoat glaze to smooth things out and primed it. Gonna let the primer cure overnight and wetsand it with 600 and shoot it gloss black. Slap a piece of 3M double sided tape on and stick it to the top of the column and wire it up. Funny thing, I was looking for a way to close the rear of the pods, I found a couple of the wifes lotion jars! Uh, she got a little mad when she noticed I swiped them lol! They fit like a glove!! I will post a few pics once it is painted gloss black and installed on the column. Turned out better than I expected. I have the AEM Uego and a Autometer boost gauge. The bezels are totally different. The Uego came with a silver bezel like the black one so I shot them both flat black and the extra bezel from the Uego snapped right onto the Autometer gauge. Whala! Matching bezels! Here is a few pics of it primed,
