 |
|
[quote="Philm"]I have a 54 single that I am getting back on the road.
Here is the pod that I have made, it has Westach gauges, speedo, oil pressure, volts, oil temp, fuel level, boost and cylinder head temp. I also have a 3inch Tacho that will mount on the side in its own pod?mounting cup.
The switches are modern with barndoor nobs retro fitted.
All of this was done without touching any metal.
Thanks
Absolutely spot on Phil love it

Not messing with the metal is the easy part. Manufacturing the face plate would be the hard part I would think.
