I have searched - cannot find much on aftermarket CHT Gauges.
I am building a 2056 that will run dual Dells - would like to install a quality CHT gauge and wondering what others have used. |

Researched this when I was looking to put one in my car. Most folks weren't too happy with the VDO CHT and many recommended Aircraft Spruce. I bought the following and have installed all but the sensor as I am still waiting on engine; I've included part numbers and what I paid back in November:
aircraftspruce.com 10-01425 2" CHT PYROMETER GAUGE 61.75 10-00823 CHT PROBE 14MM M-1000 23.95 10-01443 15 CHT EXTENSION LEAD 51.25 |

QUOTE(tradisrad @ Jun 8 2016, 03:31 PM)  I'm happy with my VDO gauge and sender. I'm not looking for 100% accurate numbers, but more over I'm looking for drastic changes while driving and for that I think the VDO is just fine. Plus the VDO matches the other gauges in my console (except for the wide-band o2 GAUGE) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif) While most definitely not the best gauge it is better than nothing. My aftermarket EFI also has a head temp gauge and they seem to be in the same ballpark. But I also agree the Aircraft Spruce Micro 1000 unit is a better choice. |
