Nice, Rick! That oil temp gauge sure has a high range...you're not planning on your oil temp getting that high are you? I don't think I've seen mine break 200 (even in Phoenix in June  )

Especially after popping engine #1 and #2. Hey and if you think it's overkill, it could be worse. He could have a 17" widescreen in his console running engine management with a full custom fiberglass install. I would say with a car like Buckshot's the focus is fortunately a bit more on function and a bit less on form. Anyone seen that video of a contour rolling lately? 
don't drink and drive.

No I don't plan on breaking 200, but that was the lowest range available to me.
Definitely function before form on this thing.

Nice to have all the info, but man, it's really too bad you couldn't have mounted those internally.

Mechanical fuel pressure gauge has a hose running directly to the fuel rail. I don't want that in the car. Yes, I could have done an electrical, but at the same time, where in the car would I have mounted those without hacking the dash and still have them in a sight line so I can view them while at speed on a track?

They look cool, but if they were painted body color they would be totally sweet!
