If you would be so kind and e-mail those instructions on the boost gauge because I am not to good with these computers yet.
Thanks

Where did you get your Phantom Boost Guage and how much? Did you run the wires and vacuum hose through the post?

Thanks

ARE cover was 1050 with the wing.I like the wing personally.The boost gauge and pod are made by Autometer.Instuctions are found by using that search button at the top of the screen.Key words BOOST GUAGE INSTALL...its all right there.tells you everything you need
to know.I bought the guage and pod at Car boutique here in Chicago....You can find these items at any local speed shop.The pod is a 2 5/8" and so is the guage...hope this helps a little.

Cool

Here are the parts you need w/exact part #'s for the Phantom gauge and gauge pod that fits the L. https://www.f150online.com/f150board...ML/001245.html

If you can't find the gauge and pod I got mine here:
www.performanceunlimited.com

The website is still under construction but if ya' call the Norfolk # ask for Tony.
