Wannabe 6.0 gauge whore...

[ponyexpress94]

As the title implies I am looking into putting gauges in my 03 6.0L and I am looking for input on where to hook up some of the sensors.

My wish list of gauges:
Oil Pressure
Oil Temperature
Water Temperature
Fuel Pressure
Boost
EGT (Pre and Post Turbo?)
Trans Temp

I have located one or two articles describing fuel pressure hookup and coolant temp but I wasn't sure I should be putting a coolant sensor in one of the blocks drain plugs. I want to keep my factory gauges working so I am curious if I can insert adapters at various locations to insert an aftermarket sensor without adversely effecting the stock sensors reliability or it's readings which may go to the ECM for operation of the engine. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Mount your pyro (egt) pre turbo, trans gauge in the side port right above your trans range selector. I'm pretty sure if you go to Diesel Performance at DieselManor, Inc. - Taking the Mystery out of Diesel Performance™ it will show install instruction on most of your gauges.

thanks for the help treyloco. Does anyone have suggestions for the oil pressure and oil temperature senders?
