Fred-
They are all electrical, with the exception of the boost gauge. The sensors AM uses these days are very reliable.

i intragrated an integra tach from a 94 gsr into the stock housing of my 80 (due to the OE tach was crap and bounced way too much). looks great and almost factory.

Thats a pretty sweet setup. Where did you find that A pilliar mount? How'd you wire in those fuel pressure and mixture gauges? I've also wondered how hard it was to install a trans temp gauge, have any info on that?

here ya go... the only prob was i had to use a heat gun so i could bend the tip of the needle down so it would not hit the cover and it slightly warped the backing on the 1 and 2k on the tach. but it works a hell of a lot better than the oe.
