ok so i picked up 3 of these gauges today.
1 water temp
1 oil temp
1 oil pressure.

i don't know if there mechanical or electric....maybe you would/
are these a bitch to install? i heard that oil pressure gauge inside the car is not a good thing but whatever you can tell me about having these hooked up in a car is greatly appricated...
i was'nt even looking for these and came across them for $15 each..
so i felt like i got a deal + with a swap soon in the works for $45 i'll take the extra prop points...tell me what ya think?
thanx

Dude, those are nice. At $15 a piece hell yeah use them. If you dont want them hook me up. lol

Shouldnt be too hard to install. Check the manufacturers webpage for instructions. Autometer has some instructions.

yup!
found out they are'nt electrical
so looks like i'm in for some fun. it'll be good to do though?
has anyone used a greddy spacer for mech. gauges?

Make sure you put the temp gauge in a flowing port. Thats the only way it will work properly. You can get a T adapter kit and a metric adapter kit by Sunpro at autozone to install the oil pressure guage. As far as oil temp goes, I wouldn't bother.

mechanical gauges are fucking hard to install. i woudl sell them and buy electrical ones. because i would stay away from runing 2 oil lines and a water line into you dash. alot easier to get ripped and leak into your interior.

the install has been done so many times. i wonder why you bother to ask. i can think of 4 pages of top of my head that will have the instructions.
