It looks better than some factory dashes. Pus a 160MPH speedo would be nice!

it was pretty easy. if you pop the trim panel off and look at the back side there is a injection mold line on the part that needs to be trimmed to give it the flush mount look like i did. i just trimmed that with a dremel and used an air grinder with the scotch brite brillo type pads to sand everything flat and level the used some jb weld for plastic to attach the acrylic sheet that i bought from hoome depot.

At the time I was using the msd 6010 and just hooked the tach input wire to the to the tach out wire on the msd and the tach worked right out of the box... I blew up the motor with too much timing and too much boost and shitty gas. When I get back from overseas the truck is getting an all aluminum 5.3 with microsquirt and 80lb injectors since the carb **** is for the birds.
