<p class="ydp8155e2fbyiv1736207926MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;">We just pulled the small gage cluster to rework it. All the gages are out and will be sent to West Valley Instruments to be refurbished/rebuilt.</span></p>

<p class="ydp8155e2fbyiv1736207926MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;">I have the option of keeping the temperature gage as is (I checked and it will thread into the rebuilt engine) or having it redone as an electric gage.</span></p>

<p class="ydp8155e2fbyiv1736207926MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;">I kind of like the funny old gage with its funny old piping that goes through the engine compartment. On the other hand, electric is simpler and probably cheaper.</span></p>

<p class="ydp8155e2fbyiv1736207926MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;">Since the car has an alternator and backup lights off the TR6 OD tranny, wiring isn’t an issue.</span></p>

<p class="ydp8155e2fbyiv1736207926MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;">Just looking for opinions – keep the TR3a style or go electric?</span></p>
