I just purchased an 2 1/16" AEM Gauge-Type Wideband UEGO Controller. I have a black & silver bezel, as well as a black & silver faces so I can see what looks best...

Description:
AEM’s Wideband UEGO Controller is also available in a gauge that includes a single-channel analog output with a Bosch O2 sensor in one unit!
AEM’s Gauge-Type Wideband UEGO Controller features an LED readout and sweeping LED “needle” that changes colors as AFR changes from rich to lean. The unit’s 52mm (2-1/16”) gauge housing fits in most gauge pods and can be remotely mounted virtually anywhere. No laptop required for monitoring!

Key Features:
Bosch sensor included!
24 Color-coded LED display lights provide immediate reference to engine’s air/fuel ratio (AFR) or Lambda
Integrated three-digit display reveals AFR or Lambda in real time
User-programmable 0-5v analog output included for use with data loggers and ANY engine management system
Ideal AFR monitoring tool for carbureted applications and engine dynamometers
Does not oscillate AFR like narrow band sensors
Serial data stream included for output of AFR (RS 232)
Accurate to 0.1 AFR

It sure looks purdy, does anyone have experience with this brand or gauge? I'm not sure if I like the BOSCH sensor idea but I'll see how it works...figure I can just screw it into one of the rear o2 sensor bungs since they are already shut off.

Come to think of it, shouldn't it be before both cats? rather than behind #2? guess I'll stop at the exhaust shop...

Mike, the bung must be installed before the cats...it won't give a correct reading if installed in a rear O2 position.

Where did you get that puppy and how much did they zing you for it? It is just what I need for my carbureted 79 F250 460 4x4
Thanks

Found it used in mint condition with 3k miles on the sensor for $200. Brand new they run near $400...but if you search eBay, you'll find some for less.

Like this one for $250 (http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/AEM-GAUGE-TYPE-6-IN-1-WIDEBAND-UEGO-CONTROLLER-30-4100_W0QQitemZ4652473200QQihZ0 02QQcategoryZ46100QQcmdZViewIt em)

Good luck
