Got my new Classic Instruments low temperature gauges installed today for Transmission and Oil temperature. Range of 40* to 220*. After installation turned them on and all three gauges read the same temp 87*. Added water to engine temp dropped to 63* and started to head to ambient. Real good stuff from John McCleod and the team at Classic Instruments.

It's American Made!!!

Hey Larry on your low temp gauges are they just electric or are you just tapping into the can-bus system on the fuel injection?

The Classic gauges are stand alone and supply the information to the internal data recorder. Small, compact, light and easy to install, its a real top shelf product.

And Dumbo is the not so pretty Class winner at the Sports. A BIG tip of the hat to all of you that have helped during the past three years. I could not have done it without your help. Thank you !

Me thinks that Dumbo after tasting the reality of competition is hard at work with his trainer, the master of performance Larry Hill.
Sush! I can hear them in the garage as I speak.

We pulled the plug on Dumbo for Indy. He is good but not ready for the big show.
