I've heard some people wrapping that particular vent with like tin foil, or a heat resistant wrap so it doesn't blow on the back of the gauges.

thanks. Think I'll be doing this when I get my a/f gauge so I don't need a pillar for one gauge

In process right now got it drying right now With two places for gauges. Nice write up man.

EDIT: pretty much done just need to go get some black paint for it.

I also made it so the gauges will face towards the driver a little. You can tell a little from this pic the one on the right sticks out a tiny bit more and has a little tilt to the driver.
