Aftermarket gauges

Sounds like the OP is considering the option of permanently using them once the break-in is completed.
Id like to but it's not a necessity. At least on the water temp anyway. The oil pressure is staying either way! If I can't find a permanent solution to the water temp I will just take the oil pressure gauge out of the housing and make a single pod housing and mount it somewhere but I would like to use both. Just for a backup
