I've got a '69 chevelle with LSX that's going twin turbo and I plan to use the holley dominator and I was considering using the Holley LCD as the dash. What are the pros and cons now that you've done it? Any conventional gauges you would add?

I love the LCD the only downside to it is you no longer have an odometer to keep track of mileage but I got over it real quick

Maxxmitchell mounted the new turbo and built new kit Saturday. Needed a bigger holesaw but decided against a single bull horn and going down pipe out the hood. Love it or hate it.

Yeah, please cut it flush with the hood Curtis. Making it like the Great White Landshark would be sick.

there won't be a stack. it'll be cut flush with it and cut at an angle. The landshark isn't around anymore so it was a little easier for me to go this route
