While the hot topic seems to be gauges I am on the lookout for some budget gauges.

Currently I have some magnolia clocks in my SPI which i wish to retain. I am going to fit a walnut dash with 3 52mm aux gauge holes.

I was thinking. PSI Boost Gauge (20 psi would be ideal), PSI Oil Pressure Gauge, and either an AFR Gauge or Oil Temp Gauge (recommendations???).

Does anyone know what gauges and fittings I could get which will not look a monkeys breakfast with my clocks and dash without spending the earth?

Cheers

Thanks the Sunpro Styleline Gauges look pretty good.

I wonder if i could use their AFR gauge somehow?
