Default Stewart Warner Gauges

Can anybody or Steve, tell me what "size" guages are in bad penny. I really like that setup and I couldn't tell if the speedo and tach were 3 3/8" or 5" inch or if the others were 2 5/8" or 2 1/16.

I was also wondering if anybody had any pics of the stewart warner max performance gauges lit up.

Thanks

Chris

3 3/8 for the tach and speedo. 2 5/8 for the ones in the center stack and 2 1/6 for the other two near the tach/speedo (oil, digi tach).

They light up very nicely with "glow through" numerals. especially if you upgrade them to LED.

Steve- Have you used the digi-tach for the shift light yet? Can you see it well under aggressive driving? BTW, do you have anymore high res pics of the car? I need a background for my new laptop. I already used the car in the desert shot for my desktop!

Yea, it's very bright (can be adjusted). I really need to swap the digi-tach and the oil pressure gauge since the top of the shift light is blocked by the top of the steering wheel...

Here's another pic for yea.
