<DIV><BR></DIV>Jack, <BR>The gauges sure look cool and the ones you mention
have to be the choice for individual gauges. I really like the warning
features. A lot simpler than my method of extra idiot lights beside a standard
gauge using additional switches for temp & press.<BR>Have you ever looked
at a Racepac dash? All electronic with all the warning set points. Seems to me
that it works the issue of limited EB dash space? For the racer the data
logger or playback is also attractive. I got a briefing last time I was in El
Cajon from the shop next door that is installing the Racepac in pre-runners
and race trucks. I was impressed.<BR>I have also been looking at the EIS which
many of the home built airplane guys use. Its got EGT that would go unused for
an efi auto engine. Price is good.<BR>Both the Racepac & EIS are less cost
than a full panel of gauges.<BR><BR>For the electronic dash I was considering
adding a conventional tach and speedo to go with the monitor.<BR><BR>The goal
for the airplane guys is to minimize the amount of things that the pilot has
to monitor. These electronic systems eliminate the gauges but flash up a
display & warning light when a parameter goes out of range based on the
set points chosen. I thought it would be applicable for a racer. Meaning
pay attention to driving not monitoring the engine/tranny.<BR><BR>For the
listers here is Jack's link:<BR><A

in brown delivered a box of really cool high tech gauges to me
today!!!<BR><BR>These gauges are REALLY nice. They have a white face that goes
black when the lights are on. They also have adjustable alarm modes that allow
you to wire in warning lights.<BR><BR>If you guys aren't familiar w/ this
company, check them out. <A
