One of my project cars (w/ the 2056cc GA) came with a 150mph speedo - it has NO silver dot and only a few numbers (30, 60, 90, 120, 150), I'm wanting all three gauges with silver dots, so I picked up a 120mph gauge (has silver dot and many more numbers).
It's my impression that a 120 is not gonna be ideal with the 2L (and maybe even larger engine down the road), or if they're even compatible - Will they play nice together? Is it common, or "just not done"? I do actually like the 120 gauge better, because of the silver dot AND the additional numbers that it has.. can a 914 even exceed 120 ? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/screwy.gif) .. The other option is to try and swap the dot/needle from the 120 to the 150 and live with less numbers (not a big deal). Anyone know if that's as easy as it sounds? Looking for thoughts ideas and opinions on this delema (IMG:style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif) and don't want to send off to any gauge specialist either. |
