Racco: I had a near meldown with the amp gauge (smiths). I replaced it with a Smiths Volt gauge. I spoke to Peter at Nisonger and he said it was a common occurence. I chased mine down for a bit of time. I kept selling hair burning. As it turned out it was the gauge from the inside out. The face was starting to melt when I found the problem.. Good catch... Go with the volt gauge eventhough it not period correct.....

I agree with Ralph, I got the voltmeter for my CCX from Peter as well, it's a smart move.
