Nice cutlass man.

Is that an Autometer or a Pro Pod pillar mount? How well does it fit? It looks good. Three on the pillar gives me more room in other places. I have two gauges now installed in the vents to the right of the driver. But I'm thinking to make a custom switch panel there, and installing my gauges on the pillar and in the HVAC/ Radio hole.
 
gauges

this is how i did mine

My 78 Cutlass has a stock dash except these

Malibu guys like to steal the whole dash like the one in my 79 Grand Prix

The good, your isolator in fine.
Per NHRA rule book 1:5 " Fuel pressure gauge isolators, with braided line,may be mounted on firewall".

Although I might suggest it be moved so if it does leak, the fuel won't land right on the coil!

The bad,your regulator/lines are not.
Same section ", fuel distribution blocks, etc. must be mounted at least 6 inches forward of the flywheel/bellhousing area on a (RWD) vehicle.."

Wow, all of you are giving me great ideas and views...especially the 79 Grand Prix dash. Going to have to check the local junk yards for that one.
BTW shot gun, looks like a nice Grand Prix. Can you send me pix of the outside and under the hood... [email protected]

Thanks 406monte. That's a real clean Monte in your sig. I'm a contractor over here. I live at Phoenix, but travel this whole Country. I install the "Big Voice"... and unfortunately I'm the only one in theater doing it and have install 17 Sites over the last 4 years. I'm currently in Khowst (FOB Clark). And since your in the Marines, you already know what's happening here. I've been to Deleram many times. Its a nice Camp with good food.

I'm sure I speak for everyone on here and everyone back home...Thank you for serving our Country.
 
Nice Car! And THANK YOU for your service!!(Insert patriotic smilie here)
 
88_50 when was the last time you were here at Deleram. I have been here since Nov 18th. Yea, the food was the best around for a long time but now it is just a bunch of re-heated tray rats (big tv dinners) i mean we haven't had a real cooked meal here in alteast a month. I have been eating tuna packets and ramen noodles for the last month for dinner and lunch. Breakefast is no longer eggs and bacon it is now 3 sausuge links (if you wan to call them that) and a piece of cake that is supposed to be a square pancake and some apple sauce. We don't even have milk or the little cereals anymore. Now, this is what comabat chow is supposed tobe though, bit after having it good and then having it taken away really sucks.

The "BIG VOICE" you say isn't that the loud PA system for incoming attacks and what not? We currently don't have one here yet. It's been really quiet here so far but seems to be picking up some. Need to drop me a line when you are heading this way so we can talk some car talk when you get here.

I apprecaite the kind words of me serving always means alot to us Vets.
We vets appreciate you contractors coming here to make our lives a littel bit better and safer too. It's not the safest for you guys here sometimes and i just wanted to say thanks to you.
