Ouch! That's why an air shut down is on my list.

 

I would definitely recommend it.

 

Sir i cant even begin to tell you how thankful i am of you. Seriously ive seen your guage panel somewhere but couldnt remember where. Ive literally been searching everywhere for your panel. Thank you so much. you wouldnt happen to have a template or draw up of your panel would you.

 

Here is my dash gauges

Tach, speedo, fwd fuel, aft fuel, air pressure, volts, oil pressure, engine temp.

The dash is thermoformed .125" textured abs plastic

 

Wow!

 

Sorry, I don't. If you go about 10 pages or so back in my thread below there are more detailed pics, and descriptions.

 

This is the main reason why I don't like having an FE in my dent. Takes up too much room and is so damn difficult to work on. Give me that six cylinder any day and I'm good to go!

 

Factory gauges include speed, OP, WT, fuel, amps. Beyond that I'd add volts (or replace amps) since you probably have or should or will upgrade the alternator beyond factory specs and wiring capability. A voltmeter works great to monitor system condition in that case.

Beyond that trans temp would be my choice as I tow. Next would be a tach, next engine oil temp.

 

Huge difference in room.

Pulling the column out of my dent with that huge brake booster and the V8's valve cover and manifold being in the way really made things awkward.

Now, it's not that bad but it's not preferable.

 

This is what I did. Laser cut out of ABS. Fits speedo, tach, oil, water, volts, fuel. Just the basics.

 

Ohh that's a pretty blue! Is that a factory color?

 

All of you did very nice work. It was a joy to see the photos, although a part of me wishes I had not seen them, because now I want to replicate what I have seen.

 

What are all the toggles on the left for?
