SCP sells a GEN II A-Pillar Gauge pod? Are you SURE?

Water temp should be easy. Best bet is to have a machine shop weld you a 1/8th inch NPT bung on your crossover tube. Don't just replace the OEM thermistor with the sending unit for the gauge. The computer needs to read the water temp.

Oil pressure should be equally easy. IIRC, there is an 1/8th inch NPT plug on the sending unit. The size may be bigger, but any machine shop should be able to make you a correct size bushing.

But I would REALLY check with SCP about that pillar pod for the 2nd gen. I'm not saying he don't have them, but Evanoff has been known to lie his ass off just to make a sale.
