As far as the Smith's goes, be careful of the little "c" on some of the gauges. I waited for ever for my motor to get up to operating temp when I first fired it! It got up to 80 and stopped. Bob

Blackjack;
Tristate is in Eastern PA and can be contacted at tristatemotersports.com. Mike Mack is the owner, a great guy, and will certainly be at Carlisle this year as he is the guy who hosts the FFR build school that ads. in the kit mags.

As soon as I figure out what the resistance value of my gas tank sender I am ordering a set
This is a pretty good deal..all I need is a reverse speedo adapter,speedo cable and one tubing kit for the oil pressure.
What have you guys used for cable??

Whaler,
The difference in the sweep between the two guages is due to mechanical vs electrical. I have never understood why you can't find full sweep electrical guages. Electrical sure are easier to install but I like the appearance of the full sweep of the mechanical guages.
