Modified Gauge Cluster

72_Durstya,

I appreciate your idea, and had thought about doing something like that.
If you look a little closer you will see that the OIL PRESSURE gauge is nearly centered over the steering column (real estate issues). Centering over the steering column, vs. centering in the middle of the gauge panel, was more important to me.
If I had placed the TACH or SPEEDO centered over the steering column with the other TACH or SPEEDO to the right or left of it, all of my planned gauges would not have fit.
Also, the gauge panel tapers down as you go left, so the 3 3/8" gauges are in about the only places they could be (real estate issues again).
It's all about the "space race" when laying this thing out.
