That is a cool chart. I bookmarked it. Per the chart the 168 has 3.00c.p. and the 194 has 2.00c.p. Time to pick up some 168s :)
Thanks for the great link

Go to www.superbrightleds.com and get some of there 5 pin led refractor style bulbs, they are 3-5 times as bright and will last forever!!! There are about a $1.00-1.75 more per bulb, but you only need 4 of them to light the dash up, the other 5 are for the turn,high beam, and brake/temp lights in the fuel gauge.
