New instruments in Rally dash

[soundcontrol]

Looks great! I think it will look good with woodgrain also, was there ever any non-rally panels with stock woodgrain?

  Yes my gran coupe has wood grain with A non rally dash bezel.

After seeing these Speed hut gauges in the Rallye dash and after reading Brad's post a while ago, I am going to definitely order these for mine. I love the GPS speedo and will go all metric 

I am going for the 4" speedo, tach and 2 x dual gauges and deleting the clock.  Black face with a Challenger logo. I will post a pic when I get them.

Has anyone who is running a Speed Hut fuel gauge used their fuel sender? Apparently it doesn't run on a float level but measures by ohm resistance and is supposed to be more accurate (according to them).

They have 2 sizes and say it ideally needs to be 1/2" off the bottom of the tank.

Has anyone used this sender??

Anyone able to tell me if I would fit the long or the short one in an E Body tank??

My tank is way across town (with my car) so I cant measure it for a while. Any sender location pics appreciated too as I cant find them in any posts.

Can't wait to see your new gauges, sounds really nice! 
I used the stock fuel sender for my speedhut gauges ?   That one you posted will require drilling a hole and the bolt pattern? Problem might be it will hit the floor unless your using this tank?

example of surface-mounted Speedhuts I think:

That is a super nice tank Brad .  Have you been happy with the accuracy of the stock unit? Are you running a stock fuel tank?

I have been considering fuel injection on my 416 small block build.  I like the triple 2 barrels.... but the cost is like WOW! Is your Chally injected? I'd be interested in finding out more as the old 6 pack set-up I have is so hard to tune properly.

The accuracy seems to be ok, but I did some mods to the sender and now it leaks/weeps so I bought this tank to solve that problem. Mine is still a carb , for now?
See this post for more on that tank.

With the price of Speedhuts, and all the work to put them in, seems it'd be easier just to get the DD gauges:

DD definitely cheaper and easier but the Speed Hut will look way cooler IMO. Which is why I'm torn at this point.

[70chall440]

This seems to be a common issue, one I am in as well. I have SH gauges but then begin looking at the DD set up.Problem is

1. I do not like their gauge faces
2. they do not offer green illumination
3. it is one complete unit, not sure how you would service say just one gauge (I am sure you could)

Primarily due to item #1 and a little of #2, I will stick with my SH gauges and build a mounting apparatus.

How much cheaper is the DD set up over Speedhut? I ask as I think mine was around $1000? .... and I could use my own design.

not much, I think its about 900, But it appears to be assembled in the cluster and ready to install. So no fab work required.

I still like the speedhut stuff better

Correct, the DD setup is around $900 whereas a set of SH gauges cost about $800 (I paid $778).

I emailed DD and asked them if they had any plans on gauge face options such as more authentic lettering, needle colour etc, they advised, not in the immediate future but thanked me for the feedback, maybe if enough of us ask the question to them they might consider it
