Received.

It's something to think about... It's a good chunk of motor building money... Need to talk to my accountant.

No, you need the drive to Pearson to get the grin off your face so I can drive it to Borden!

what did you do to get the three middle gauges installed?

You need to remove the entire dash to do it properly. Then you need to figure out a way to make the gauges fit. There is no easy way to do this and everyone could do it differently depending on the gauges. I made an aluminum bracket the used the holes from the factory gauge mount. Removed the hats from the gauge surrounds, then I needed to cut 70% of the plastic out of the gauge surrounds. For secure mounting i used a combination of hose clamp and fabricated bracket attached to the gauge then attached to the original aluminum bracket that I installed. This allows me to remove the gauge incase of failure without removing the dash again. Finished with securing the hoods to the gauge surround with silicone.

I would have done it very differently if my gauges were thin.

Looks hot Jason! Also looks pricey, becoming an expensive build! I'm meeting with my mechanic on Monday to discuss the build on mine. Getting excited!

What are your camber specs on the front? Seems like you had to go a little more negative than stock, eh?

Did you have to get arms, because you look slightly lowered too.

Ps. Perfect amount of aggressiveness on your wheel spec.

PSS. (Onzedge??) I see you're on swifts. Just curious what correction you've had to do after lowering?
