Default gauges

what do you all think of my experiment do not laugh

The big gauge will have a 5" speedometer and a 5" tachometer

the steering column will have a 2 1/16" fuel level gauge

the A-Pillar will have three 2 1/16" gauges Volt, Water Temp, & oil pressure

It will come out to around 600 dollars

Just picture all them together and tell me what you think

i think the pillar would look nice IMO but why the big tach and speedo? i have to say it would be the 1st 2nd gen to do 150 lol. provided you place them all in the right spot it would look good, go for it.

Why take the stock ones out? just curious. If you want to change the look they make different "face plates" for the gauges and the backgrounds. Here's a few: http://www.andysautosport.com/dodge/...h/gauge_faces/

If you dont have a tach I can see adding that and the speedo to match the tach. The rest of them, why bother spending 600 for gauges you already have?
Why not add a couple usefull gauges you dont have instead?
Air to fuel gauge, trans temp gauge(could save a rebuilt trans), maybe a temp gauge for your intake manifold and outside air temp
