Hi I have a '73 914 that is having an engine upgrade. I am looking to add an oil temp, oil pressure & cylinder head temp guages to car. Was thinking of putting them where climate controls are on dash. Won't need the climate controls as car will be fair weather driver only, & all heat exchangers are being removed from exhaust. Are there any kits out there to do this? Or has anybody tried this before? Any help would be great!

Are you aware the factory included the back half of the console wire harnes

in every 73. It can be found under the carpet between the seats. just plug a stock

console wireing harness in. You will have to run your own wireing for your CHT. As

to putting the gauges in the dash. I think that would look fubard . My 2 cents.

also you will need a Taco plate and the correct sender for your temp gauge.

There are 3 gauge under dash panels sold every where. If you use stock size

gauges that may be a problem finding a panel to fit. Dave (IMG:style_emoticons/default/slap.gif)
