agreed. though i am a fan of mechanical gauges (not so much for accuracy - in this day and age, electric guages are pretty accurate, but rather for the 270* sweep), this suggestion will be easy to plumb and install. those two gauges should be the first two gauges to be installed, IMHO.stprorolla49 said:get a water temp and oil pressure..........both electric...easy to install and put em in a pillar pod.....125 bucks total......just bought Sport Comps from Jegs last nite..........
most mechanical gauges have a range of ~270 degrees from 0 to Max. many electric gauges have something acute (like 90* or less), which just makes it harder to interpolate, IMHO. i like the wider spread in the calibration (with a mechanical gauge, one can read the measurement almost to the exact increment, whereas with electric gauges, the needle width often covers 5-10 increment's worth).nmcgrawj said:explain that "sweep" stuff...i never knew what it meant when i looked at guages in the mags.
any of the AM products should treat you well. those two gauges should give you the ranges you will need. really comes down to what you like, what fits and what works with your interior and gauge scheme.1995 vibrantred said:I am looking at Auto Meter water temp 100-250, and oil press 0-100 psi, any good?
