I'm about to put the stang away for the winter and start my projects, one of which is a custom gauge cluster. I already have an Autometer voltage, oil pressure, water temp, and a tach.
So first question...which 3 3/8" speedo and which 2 1/16" fuel level gauge do I need (in the Ultra-Lite series). I was thinking...
Speedo...with the proper sender

Fuel Level...still need to find out how many ohms is full/empty. Anyone?
Next question pertains to the dummy lights. When the computer triggers a dummy light, does it illuminate the light by giving it a 12 volt source or by giving it a ground?
Last question for now...if I completely mess up the install, will the car still start and run? Actually a better question would be if the car will start without the stock cluster even plugged in?
Thanks guys, if anyone that's done this wants to post some pics or any how-to's it would be appreciated.
