The six gauges that comprise this system display all of the information you need to monitor the performance of your ‘stang when you’re behind the wheel. The information is processed through the micro-controlled precision stepper and laboratory-grade, solid state sensors to yield incredibly efficient readings. These sensors are primarily for water temperature, oil pressure and the speedometer pulse generator. Fully programmable for various tire sizes, rear-end gearing and more, the speedometer effectively converts a mechanical speedometer cable to digital. The water temperature and oil pressure sensors have 1/8" NPT sensors along with bushings to adapt to 1/4", 3/8" and 1/2" NPT. The other displays will work with any sensor you have, whether they be OEM or aftermarket.
