An Idea For Gauges

While doing the engine change in the 90 I came up with this location for some gauges. It won't be for everyone, but they are very functional. Still have the stock gauges working inside. I added another temp & oil senders. You can also see the transmission gauge I installed in one of the pics. Things look pretty tight, but the engine is up and running now, so everything does clear.
Great for comparision and troubleshooting.

Dailup warning, these are large.

hey man nice pics of the sending units; do you have any more?
 
The sending units themselves came with the gauges. The adaptors that the units screw into I built. The oil adaptor is nothing more than a few brass fittings. The temp adaptor is a modified stock thermostat housing.
