    LB7: Gauge Install (Just checking twice)

    I know there have been a million threads on this but I want to make sure of a couple things: 1. Do you guys that have the Z series from Autometer like the look? I really want something that is close to stock. 2. This Z Series EGT I am looking at http://www.summitracing.com/parts/ATM-2654/...

    LB7: Duramax n00b

    Thanks! I'm just trying to find some gauges that will match the stock cluster well. I'm taking a look at the Autometer Z series. They do not use LED's and they are priced really great too! How long of a pyro probe do I need?

    LB7: Duramax n00b

    Thank for the info guys. I don't plan on doing anything too outrageous with the Duramax. I usually end up spending most of the money on the Buick. And from experience with modifying, I know how unreliable things can get. So I'd rather keep the Duramax relatively mild. I still need it to get...

    LB7: Duramax n00b

    Hello all! I purchased my 2003 LB7 new. Except for some extra cranks on the torsion bars this truck is bone dry stock. I'm not real familiar with diesels in general but I am familiar with turbocharging. I figure it's time to spend a little cash on the truck for once as the Buick usually gets...
