The gauges could sound an alarm at a preset - no point looking at 'em while their in the normal range anyway...

the WB cant, and thats something you need to have in clear view at all times, by the time an alarm goes off, it could be too late.

the gauges are like looking at a clock.....you obviously know what time it is without the numbers, even at an angle. I've watched them enough to know what is safe and what is not

hahaha, clocks dont do full 270 degree sweeps in under a second. but if youre cool with it, thats all that matters. so during a WOT run, you can tell the EGT gauge is at 1500 vs 1700 (which on your gauge is only a difference of about a cm) by using your peripheral vision? i hope so, because at 1700, youre engine is melting. good luck with it and be careful.

Thanks for your concern, but I am pretty sure she will be just fine.

This car was built very solid, and very conservative. Thats for sure.

I would def make a new guage housing that angels them at the driver! Out of the whole setup, It's the only thing I would even want to try redoing! What a sweet build tho! <333

Seriously, have a new guage housing made that angles them towards you a lil bit, its relatively cheap and the guages are your most important warning that something is wrong! You're probably looking at $100-200 at most for that piece
