Thanks guys! I definately feel you on the gauge thing. I really wasn't going to use it, but it looked dark without it and I've had the car since I was in high school and built that gauge piece when I was like 16, so I didn't want to use anything else really. Here are some more of the detail shots with some of the machined pieces
also:This is a cover over the temperature sending unit to disguise it, no one ever notices.
