Are the gauges 2-5/8 or 2-1/16? Can you fit three 2-1/16 gauges in the radio slot?

Ok, thanks. That's where I plan on putting mine although they'll be the slightly smaller ones.

Looks good. I hate working with ABS stuff, but the outcome is always worth it.

Looks pretty good, I won't be removing the radio or instrument panels though. I think I'll just go with the A-pillar 3-gauge pod. If I get a chance I'll put up picks of my little fan switch/E-wp warning harness setup It's nice

She'll run pretty good. Dont get caught up in the numbers though. Especially with a non lock up stall converter. You'll be disappointed.
