    Default Cut em to fit what?

    do you know how much room is back there? That plate is a temp until I can make a nicer one. Didn't feel like spending $200 on the hartge panel. You need decent clearance back there and that requires the gauges to be held out a little.

    Default Of course they are hooked up.....

    180F oil temp (gauge is a bit inaccurate considering it's location...will move it soon)
    20psi at idle when fully warm and up to 60psi when operating (check valve on oil pump cuts it at 60psi)

    Outstanding work! Much in the way of niggling little problems to work out yet, or did you get it all perfect right off the bat? I'm impressed.

    Default I hate to jinx the whole project....

    but other than forgetting to swap the starter relays and tighten the tensioner plug , it really seems to be just fine!

    so when you get a nicer one will it sit that far out, or will it snug under the ash tray?/
