[s-cars] Additional Gauge Suggestions

Hello all,

I am in the process of getting some walnut burl and commercial press
board to build an identical panel to the rest of the wood trim to
replace the ash tray and hold my Boost gauge.  I have even found the
lacquer to use...

Anyhow, I am curious as to what other gauge I should put into the panel
next to the boost gauge.  The two I would prefer are:

Oil Pressure Gauge - don't know how easy this would be to connect to
our car.  Do we already have an oil pressure sensor (other than just
"low pressure" sensor)?

Air/Fuel mixture Gauge - All of them seem to be digital, I would only
put in a white analog gauge.  This would be easy to connect to the O2
sensor though.

Any other suggestions of what may be useful yet straightforward to deal
with?

Thanks for your help.

Additionally, anyone in the Denver area who is looking to build a plate
for their gauge(s), please write to me.  I have to buy a sheet of burl
(and it is fairly costly), and will have excess to sell at my cost.  If
you want to work on the design/construction, let me know.

Cheers,
Brian
