Just put it in last night. The old tach was off by 800rpm! It said I was reving to 6500 when the PCM said it was really 5700 (stock rev limit). I'm hoping to get the rest of the gauges soon. I don't want to have a pillar mount set to avoid unwanted attention. Eventually I'll get a new piece to mount them all too as well.

I tried to do a search, but someone was selling his homemade guage cluster a while ago. Was it you Schultz? They had everything mounted on a piece of aluminum with everything mounted to it. Even had LED's for the blinker, high beam, and SES light.

I'd like to do tranny temp, water temp, oil pressure, dual o2's, fuel level, battery, and maybe one other. Think I could fit most of this in the stock guage area? I also like the look of guages under the middle vent under the dash pad. Or I guess I could just get a laptop mount and monitor it all with my laptop.

You're almost there man. I'll admit I like the 5" gauges better, but the 3 3/8's allow everything to easily fit in full view.

*Edit, the topics you're looking for are probably these:
