Title: Shift light info.
Post by: Powered by Spearco on March 01, 2009, 10:40:48 pm

I saw this and was wondering if someone might know how to hook it up and use it.

 I'm thinking of using it for the drag Scirocco instead of a tach.

I doubt it will work on a diesel w/o adding a tach sensor.

Thats what I had thought at first. I planed on doing the tach setup that others have with the Ford trans. speed sensor, at the crank shaft and not use an alt.
Any thoughts?

That's how I'm going to run my Tach also.... after I start driving my project.

apparently sound travels faster to the brain.  i'd rather have a DING (dinners ready-ish)  :lol:

I was also thinking of running w/ this gauge.

 I don't think I'll really have to much of a chance to watch any thing else, well, the track.
What do you think.
