exhaust gas temp gauges

so i wanted to know if their is a company that makes a EGT gauge that will cycle threw each cylinder??

i ended up burning up a plug and piston and dont know why, i didnt notice the wideband showing lean at all but still leaned out #4

so i want to get a header and tap in a EGT probe for each cylinder and have a digital gauge that cycles threw each one..i tired searching for one but had no luck...does something like this exsist? or what is my best option becuase i dont want to blow the new built up engine when its done....

(the car does have the GM stage 3)

I can make you something if you fail find what your looking for, It would consist of 4 2in wide by 1 in digital read outs marked and labeled per cylinder and molded into a pod that can mounted on the steering column in front of the gauges, each guage would have a temp sensor with a 1/8 NPT threaded mounting adaptor.

the meter looks like this, it would be a total of 4 them as they cant cycle more then one sensor

Im known as the parts engineer at my local club

AEM UEGO Controller-Air/Fuel Ratio or Lambda (6 in 1 Gauge-Type; Sensor Included)

Could run 1 gauge hooked up to a 4 position rotary switch and run the EGT senders through that.
