Had a buddy of mine make me a stencil with numbers so I could paint my gauges. I have them for water temp as well. What do you guys think?

I think Im gonna redo it and just paint it black and get a vinyl sticker instead of the stencil. Too many small pieces and the lines are not as sharp as I want them to be. I posted the pics from my phone and after I seen them on the computer, they dont look as good on the pc as they do on my phone.

What engines required the use of an 80 lbs unit?

As stated in another post. Higher weight trucks came with them. That is where you will find the air pressure gauges as well.
