Post Pyro Gauges Test

This is for those information junkies among us. Found this link while doing a web search on gauge(s) information. Even though it's from a Dodge diesel engine website, and may not meet the scientific requirements of some, it's interesting reading. Those Dodge guys can't be all bad (lol). Anyway, it compares the 3 major gauge manufactures (AutoMeter, Isspro and DiPricol) pyros and gauges. Basically it comes to the conclusion, that all the pyros / gauges are about the same and it's just a matter of personal appearance preference and installation hardware requirements, i.e. electrical/mechcanical, amplifiers/no amplifiers, power requirements. Exception is a slower response time from the DiPricol pyro/gauge. Don't mean to start a gauge war here, but I would be interested in the reliablity/durability of the major brands. Anyone have to replace their gauge or sending unit because it failed on them? Just curious.

Not sure if the link will work because I've never posted one before. You will need Adobe Reader to view the pdf file.

The link does work. I just tested it.
Now isn't that more information than you'd ever thought you'd need on one gauge?
