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. - Rich This would be my first option...

@targa72e
John, very nice integration of the stock fuel gauge. Been wondering if this could be achieved by cutting the lower part of the tach with a similar opening as the stock fuel gauge, but I much prefer your cleaner approach. Any chance the movement could be reversed electronically? Also it would be nice to be able to get a small silver dot needle. Don't know if NHS sells them separately... As for the high beam light, you could decide to use the one for the parking lights in the speedometer and replace the green gel for the blue one you got from your tach. Cool mods (IMG:style_emoticons/default/popcorn[1].gif) |
