Digging around for guages and found this line of Cyberdyne digital. Trying to go with a total military theme and thought the black out digitals were pretty tight.



Here's what I plan to use

Speedo
Tach
Fuel Level
Fuel Pressure
Oil Pressure
Water Temp
Trans Temp


And something for the ignition to advance and retard the timiming from inside the cab.

Those digital gauges do look tight and will go a long way in cleaning up the dash area if you swap it out completely if you go with say, a swirled steel plate face ???
The MSD system, as previously suggested, is an awesome upgrade to the ignition system with easily noticable improvements across the board.
Oh yeah, and "Updates"????????????????????

Yes please!!! We've got tons of wrecked vehicles behind our body shop that I could probably easily buy a 4.3 vtec for cheap if I wanted to. I'm just contemplating a swap at least if my current engine ever drops dead on me.

Yeah this 4.3 is going in a 91 runner. Stay tuned. We plan to set it in the runner in 2 weeks right after the SAS is done.
