I bought a cheapo sunpro w/ chrome trim ring and installed it into the factory tach hole today. Great improvment, I will get some pics if anyone wants some. Now if this weekend would hurry and come I can put my 6 lug disc brake and drop spindle kit that I bought from Tim Christian!

When ppl give you crap for getting the cheap sunpro (I have a full dash of sun pro inst.) let them know that Sun Pro is made by Snap On.

Yup, a few years back Snap on noticed they were behind in the electronics department, and obviously, with all the engine manigmant stuff, that is not how to run a tool company.
So they bought Sun Pro (actually, there parrent company) and they have made some chainges in the whole line up of guages...not a whole lot of chainges, but they brought the quality up a bit.
They have just started putting there name on the wrapper, from what my snap on guy says, that is becouse the product is just now worthey of it.
