Question A-pillar guage pods - Multiple sizes in one unit?

I'd like to put some guages along my a-pillar over the winter. Maybe fuel pressure, air/fuel and a small tach, all in the sizes in the "diagram" below"

top
||o <-- 2 5/8" - Fuel Pressure
||o <-- 2 5/8" - Air/Fuel (or whatever)
||O <-- 3 3/8" - Tach
bottom

They make the guages, that is no problem...but does anyone make the all-in-one A-pillar pod to accomodate the guages?

I looked around Autometer's site but it looks like they only have it where all 3 are 2 5/8" inch. Anyone else make these in the size I am looking for?

Yo, Jason, if you can't find them, I was in contact with a company that could make them. They wanted, I believe, 40 orders. Since I didn't want to buy 40 of them and didn't think I could come up with 40 people, I dropped the idea If you want, I'll try to find the email and the name of the company I was talking to and maybe they can custom make something for you?

Correct me if I'm wrong but triple pods are usually come for 2 1/16 gauge sizes. I never seen any of this with the different sizes in one unit too.
and also I use to have the a/f ratio in front of my eyes for a year and it was the most annoying thing ever + it's usless.

I know for sure that the dual ones are 2 1/16, atleast for the LT1s not LS1s

EDIT - You could always slap a big 5 incher on the dash!

Cool

Why not just get a dual pod in the 2 sizes, and find a single pod with the one size. You can mold them into the a pillar as described on my page

Yeah Jason, molding one on your own looks like a good option. And probably cheaper than having one custom made.
