Cummins in Chevy COE--gauge questions
 

Hello all. I'm hoping you guys can help me out once again. I have a 1952 Chevy COE that I have put a Cummins 5.9 12 valve into. I want to add a pyrometer, transmission temp, and possibly a boost gauge. The auto transmission came from a 1990 Dodge Ram. Will the transmission have a place for a tranny temp gauge or can I add one? I am not familiar with installing any of these gauges. Where can I buy a set of these three that I can mount somewhere in the cab. Thanks.

there should be a port somewhere on the tranny to add a temp sender. i have no experience with that particular tranny, but most auto's have a spot. i'd look on the diesel forums and see where guys are mounting their tranny temp senders for external gauges on the trucks that you transmission came from.

cool idea BTW, i've considered something similar.

if you get all three gauges in 2-1/16", you can always mount them in something like this hanging from the bottom of the dash:

Try here http://www.isspro.com/index.php#. Go to 'products' in the header bar right after 'Home' and 'About Us'. The will/should have everything need. The company has been around for decades supplying gauges for big rig diesels. I have them in my Scout II. Gas applications tho.
