In addition to gauges, I am a fan of warning lights. I have an adjustable 35 PSI oil light (917 P/N), broken fan belt, over temperature lights, and low fuel pressure. These can easily be incorporated in the gauges. A voltmeter is a useful diagnostic tool.
With a turbo type-4, why not a dry sump? All the parts are readily available and you can even use a modified 911 oil sump tank with the VDO/Porsche oil level gauge.
What is your planned use? Will it use gasoline or methanol? If on gas, you should consider the “Rubbermaid Solution” on this Forum.
Cool project.
Best,
Grady

It is a '69 912 and therefore came with the later style gauges...also I already have most of the gauges that I need.
I will incorporate several lights in the dash for warning indicators. These are very inportant to me for intense driving sessions where the eyes are one the road.
I am going to be running a Carrera fender oil cooler, but keep it wet sump with a deep sump mount.
What is the rubbermaid solution?
