Re: Pillars

Pillar:
-2-1/16" engine oil temp (electric)
-2-1/16" tranny temp (electric)

The 2-1/16" gauges are generally only 1/4-sweep (the needle moves 90-degrees) and the hash-marks are coarser, so you put the gauges that need the least accuracy in the pillar.

Center A/C vents:
-2-5/8" Nitrous pressure (mechanical)
-2-5/8" Fuel pressure (electric)
-2-5/8" Oil pressure (mechanical)

With the larger gauges you get a full-sweep (270-degrees), and finer hash-marks. Easier to read between the lines

I also have:

-5" 8,000rpm Tach on top of dash
-ScanMaster LT on top of steering column
-Real time readout of all sensors and ECU parameters from the MoTeC on a laptop (optional).
