Running factory guages and aftermarkets good or bad?

TS87FC3S · 06-07-2011, 10:26 PM

i hate the dead look of factory guages when people install aftermarket, so i wanna run prosport water temp, oil pressure, and oil temp with factory water temp, and oil pressure.. is there any downfall to just teeing all these to two sending units?

or is there a secondary location i can plumb these too, and also can i run the oil temp in the drain of the oil cooler?

For the oil temp/pressure, get an RE-Speed filter pedestal. Great product.

For the water temp, you can take off the WP housing and tap the back side right before the T-stat and put the sender there.
