I noticed in the members files that some of you had extra guages mounted in the center of the dash. What info besides temp/fuel, speed and rpm's do you deem necessary to have (hence the guages)?

Some cmcs' and fiberfabs came that way. I took 3 out of the 7 guages that came in my car and did away with them.

Hi David,

The usual suspects would include ammeter, voltmeter, oil temp, and oil pressure, and, for the more arcane, head temp and exhaust temp(pyrometer). Regards, Jim

Oil temp is good in an 'air cooled' I would think??
