It smells until the temp lowers under 1200F. Only over 1200F for up to a minute. As soon as I crest a hill the temp will drop down to around 900 in about 30 seconds. The temp flucuates from 600 to 1100 pretty quickly under load and drops just as fast when cruising under 55mph. Its about 1100F at...

Well I ran the truck and noticed the temp max at 1250 going up long hills. :jumpin: Will have to replace the air filter and take notice of any change. If not, :nono: then I'll turn down the fuel a bit. I smell a funny smell when it nears 1200F? :blush:

I finished the installation and it's all back together. I started it up and all is working correctly. I have some wiring to do to it tomorrow and then I can take it for a test run. [thumbzup]

Thanks, I didn't mention that this is NOS. Paperwork is dated 1/81. It looks like a #4971. It is a bi-torque meter that requires a 12volt source. I'm gonna look for the SW resistor in their catalog.

Thanks, It took me some time to find the right gauge for the right price. Found it on ebay. It's a Stewart Warner so it closely matches the stock gauges. It cost me less than $100 and it is NEW. [thumbzup] Now I just have to wire it for 12volts and install the probe. Sweet deal, so far.

Just wanted to show some pics of my gauge installation in the dash panel. [thumbzup] I didn't want an external mount. As I looked at the panel I figured I could do some rearranging of components for a stock look. I think it turned out well. :scool: Now for the panel re-install and the pyro...
