[Shotimes] What are your favorite 3 add-on gauges?

[Bill Murray]

Mark Nunnally had said that the Oil Temp in his 89 was always about the
same as water temp.  If thats the case with most SHOs, I'd probably get
the water temp and figure the my oil is about the same temp.  I have Oil
PSI, Water Temp, and Volts, it seems the be the 3 most common gauges
that SHO owners get.  I figured that the Volts would be the gauge that
did the least, but of the 3 it has been the most helpful for me so far.
My water temp gauge helped when my ECT was bad also.  If I decide to get
more gauges, I think a vacuum gauge will be on the list, and maybe a
tranny temp gauge.
I'm currently working on a 3 gauge holder that will fit in the 93+
consoles where the tape box is.  You can also find some DIN panels that
are angled and have 3 holes for gauges.  I believe Apex'i makes one, and
a few manufactures that cater to European cars.
