          Right now I have underneath the ashtray a Voltmeter, a mechanical water temperature gauge, and a mechanical oil pressure gauge. In the police pod I have an air fuel ratio (light show) gauge, an amp gauge and a vacuum gauge.

          I will be removing the amp gauge totally from the car and putting in it's place my voltmeter. I will be putting new electrical oil pressure and water temp. gauges into my speedometer and installing a replacement ash tray I have so everything is seamless again.

          I was originally thinking of moving the voltmeter gauge to my single a pillar gauge pod but decided that I don't like the amp gauge so the volt gauge will take it's place.
          You still have that tachometer under the hood?

            Instead of your typical 2 1/16" gauge something like these which I believe are smaller.

              Sucks that they are only mechanical, aside from the voltmeter. I dont want to rip apart half the car to just remove a speedometer and mechanical gauges would require that.

                Bye bye shitty charging stock alternator.





                The pulley on this thing is huge! I think I am going to try and swap the Taurus pulley I have onto it.

                  Geesh...Must be nice to buy a new one. lol

                  And I see you got a factory fuseblock.

                  Is it off of a truck ??? I found out a few months ago that 97 Ford Trucks have the perfect fuseblock and wiring that you need to use for a 3G swap. Already used one on my cousins 2-door, and soon mine.

                    Naw it is not a factory one but does fool some into thinking it is

                    It is a little-fuse mega fuse holder. Looks real nice and clean and is very sturdy. The fuse was from a Taurus as well as the voltage regulator plug and the charge cable. And yeah...sometimes I like to splurge on the car...this alternator is one of those occasions.

                        The alternator, the mega fuse (probably attached to the under hood fuse box), the charge cable as well as the voltage regulator plug.

                          NOS Hood Ornament

                          Found a great deal for a NOS hood ornament on Ebay a few days back. Can you tell which one is NOS?
