No complaints except the oil pressure reading can be abit jumpy when going from revs to idle but I've had a few different pressure gauges and they all that do that.
Oh and my water temp gauge sender read about 5 degrees high

I have oil temp and pressure, mine have been fantastic! I'll probably get the same ones again for the next build.... cant go past them for the price.

I got em as well. No complaints. Used them for about 5yrs and then sold cars with them.

Joel, is your speedo cracked? Or is it a trick of the camera?


Smiley :cool:

Yea it's a crack, 70s speedos have perspex lenses not glass like earlier bugs, that speedo was out of the convertable and perspex doesn't like UV rays
