Cliff, for my crate motor I used the Autometer mechanical meter and put the
dash meter where the clock/emblem is. Its dead on accurate and much easier to
read. The autometer comes with seveal thread adapters and is easy to install.
I will send you a picture. STOA published a tech tip on how to retap the
Edelbrock and permanently fix the leaky sender problem. I checked and they
haven't put this one up on their website yet (hint).
Good luck,
Curtis
