^^ The Gauges are DEFI link meter series..I put in the (in order left to right) oil temt, tach, boost, egt, fuel press., oil press, water temp. all the stuff you need to monitor the engine when the stock stuff don't work anymore. Turbo is a T04E BB, .57 P trim..with 1.0 hot side. the swiches you speak of are (in order L 2 R) ingntion, push start, fuel pump, rad. fan...The engine 13B-RE worked over very heavly by Dave at Speedmach.

The engine was built at Speedmachine by Dave Gibson. The manifold and DP were done by Elliot White at Turblown.net (on recomendation by Dave). Those are just a few of the people that have put there hands into this project ( A long list). The build is being done by myself and my friend Allan at his shop Modified Auto Salon

Is that the 3-1/8" tach or the 4-1/2"? Im looking to mount mine in the same place, but i want it to cover the stock tack completely.
