90 Ohms is too much for an E-body sending unit. You will never read full. Not even close.   :grinno:

Those all look great guys. Im still undecided on what way to go. I've got a Ron Francis kit as well which was one of the factors on geting a aftermarket cluster. But i do like my rallye cluster and it belongs in the car. The price is about the same after its all said and done. ....I'll figure it out. :clueless:

Here's a pic of mine.  My gas gauge bounces a lot too, I'm pretty sure most of it's from my sender though.

guagmire,

How stable is that tach up there?  Is thatbolted to a dash cap or the dash directly?

I was thinking of putting mine there, but I have a cap and I think it would be a little harder to do and not as stable.... :dunno:

It's bolted to the dash directly.  I haven't had any problems with it shaking or coming loose.

Best use of a mustang with 5 inch cowl hood goes to......

Now if there was a green shift light inbetween the other 4 shift lights, that would be perfect!
