Re: Lurker OrrieG Progress Pics

I am keeping the stock gauges for now, they are 12v and/or mechanical. I have all of the original sending units and the new gas sending unit is compatible with the old gauge.

Leg room is not an issue, my wife and and I do not have to adjust any of our other car seats between us, we are almost the same height. I set it up using the stock location. I did make it so I can adjust the tilt. This was my final check to make sure the pedal locations and heights will work, steering wheel is where I want it and I can see the gauges ok. I am going to have to move the tach and trans temp from the left side of the wheel to the center of the dash, it is blocked by the turn signal stalk and wheel spoke.
