About a year ago, I spoke with Palo Alto Speedometer about their 914/6 triple cluster gauge. I assume it is still avail. Is there any other option to get a combo gauge for a 914/6 application with Fuel level, oil pressure and oil temp readings? I'm eliminating the center console in my car and would like one clean simple gauge if possible. I also saw the option of getting a standard 911 oil temp/pressure gauge and modifying a 930 tach to change the boost gauge portion of it to be the fuel gauge.

This one is my first choice... Just checking to see if there were options or anyone selling one similar.

This would be my first option...

These would be my 2nd option... Converting the Bar boost gauge into a fuel gauge.

And thanks for reminding me that I STILL haven't sent my stuff to 914forme (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif)
I'm going triple gauge with the parts from the gauges that came with my motor, a 9111 8k tach (when I get it) and putting my clock in the top of my deposit box (kind of how the 916 with the tan interior had)

The best solution is the 930 tach with the boost reconfigured and a triple gauge to the left...last I checked 930 tachs were $$$, but it sure does look good.

Ask Stephen about a 930 like gauge. I think he was going to make something similar from a 911 tach. If you are going to take apart the gauge anyway, I'm not sure it has to be a turbo gauge.
