Need gauge install help
I just bought a dual pillar gauge pod and I'm in the process of installing it. I'm going to put in Autometer water temp and oil pressure gauge. I'm going to use a oil filter adapter and radiator hose adapter for the sending units. What is the best gauge type to get - mechanical or electrical gauges for this set-up?

Depending on what brand the spacer is and how thick it is, have fun trying to do an oil change as the filter is less than 1/8" away from the front sway bar Electrical gauges all the way. |
Nowdays, Electrical guages rock.
In the early years of electrical guages, before the mass produced LM voltage regulator ICs, they sorked bad. |
