I've broke my capilary off at the sensor when fitting my latest bits and bobs, can you still get the original? or better still an electric sender with a mechanical oil pressure. Cheers

Spa do a combined didgital Water Temp/Oil Presuure guage, you may to make up an adaptor for the water temp ender though - but you managed to swap a Cerb engine with an Ls1 - so you should be able to manage this smile

Got a couple of the SPA dials in my Cerb. They work well but as Alan says the oil pressure feeds off the capillary but I'm sure someone with more technical know how than me could adapt them to use an electronic send unit straight off the engine.

Me too smile

I was going to just get a digi oil temp one for where the clock is, but probably look a bit odd? All or nothing?

Is that an ACT carbon fibre pod/cowl I spy? Something else on my wish list, good to see one in situ smile

Cerbie, what functions do you have there?
I have had the clock taken out and the oil/ water one put in.

If you fancy single-function analogue clocks, Stack is about to release a set of 270degree stepper motor driven clocks. Although I like the Spa dual digital gauges (especially in the Cerb dash pictured - fabulous..!!), Spa doesn't do a fuel level gauge that I like (the one they do is a bdised fuel pressure gauge without a correct screen-printed fascia). Stack has a full set of gauges although being single-function, you'll need more mounting holes than the 3 traditionally available in the Cerb.

OK, so where do I go for a non digi oil temp guage with yellow background, to go where the clock is?

I think you'd have to talk to the companies about colouring it. They're normally white or black, so it would be a special order...

It's a Carbon Cerbie pod with Leven stainless dash. The SPA gauges give Oil temp and pressure, fuel level & water temp, fuel pressure and voltage.
