Lights?!?

I have a 1990 D350 that i have owned for about a year now. I have got some modifications on it like a cold air intake, 4in exhaust system, and a boost, EGT, and trans gauges. I have got a major problem with my lights on my truck. It has all started when i got the gauges installed. I have been burning up fuses left and right. When i put a new fuse in, it will burn out in about 30 seconds and there will be some smoke coming out from under the dash where the fuse box is. I have got about 27 light that i have on my switch and the switch that i have is a 50 amp switch. Also when i put in a new fuse in and turn the lights on the backend lights will not turn on but the front half will. So my friend and i think it mite be a short somewhere but we're not sure. So if you guys could give me some info on what you think i would appreciate it.

Thanks Nick
