That console looks really great. I might have to see about doing something similar some day! _________________ 4 seater Appletree buggy, road legal with 002 IRS, 3x3 Appletree kit, 6" over Dan's beam with 10" towers and Fox 2.0 shocks, '00 Subaru EJ25 with KEP stage 3 clutch and KEP adapter plate.

Looks like VDO gauges. Did you remember to calibrate it if programmable or set the cyl select switch to switch between 4,6,8 cyl modes? |

I am extremely sorry for my delayed response as I have been out of town.
I am running the Equus 3-3/8" tach.
Here is the direct link to the gauge:
