Gauges | 1992-2000 GM 6.5L Detroit

Gauges and Monitoring Systems for 1992–2000 GM 6.5L Detroit Diesel Trucks

Your GM 6.5L Detroit Diesel is a proven workhorse, but keeping a close eye on engine vitals is the key to maintaining reliability and performance. Upgrading with performance gauges and monitoring systems helps you track critical data like boost, exhaust gas temperature (EGT), and transmission temperature — allowing you to prevent issues before they become costly repairs.

Factory instrumentation on these trucks provides only basic information. By adding aftermarket analog or digital gauges, you gain precise insight into how your diesel performs under load, towing, or performance driving. Knowing what’s happening inside your engine allows you to adjust your driving habits, detect failures early, and maintain long-term dependability.

A boost gauge helps monitor turbo performance and ensures your system maintains proper pressure. An EGT gauge tracks exhaust temperatures, providing a clear picture of how efficiently your engine is burning fuel — essential for protecting pistons and turbos during heavy towing or tuning adjustments. Meanwhile, a transmission temperature gauge ensures your fluid stays within safe limits, reducing wear and extending the life of your transmission.

Modern monitoring systems, such as digital multi-gauge displays, consolidate multiple parameters into one compact screen. Many feature customizable alerts, data logging, and easy mounting options for clean integration with your interior. Whether you’re running stock power or pushing your 6.5L with performance upgrades, accurate data is your best safeguard against downtime.
