This car has gremlins with gauges. I replaced the electrical water temp when it went bad reading 30* high when you turned the lights on to a pure mechanical one that worked great for a month and it now reads 230* when two separate thermometers read 195* where the sending unit is. The tach and clock are the only reliable gauges from the set that came with the kit.

I was looking at a whole set, but this one has a mechanical speedo build for a Ford transmission and I am not sure how many adapters I would need to get it to work with a Mopar a833 transmission.
