Picked up an EG for a future K-Series Swap

[k-series]

No dash. I'm going to fab a panel up and weld a few braces on it. Something that looks like 2 slices of pizza with gauges in it.

sounds like itll work to me,hope to see it soon

Here's the template for the gauge panel.

Not quite a full semi circle, the base is flat and then angles to the bottom of the semi. Hard to tell from the pics.

The straws are only there for spacing, the actually brackets will need to be well thought out so as not to interfere with the gauges.

Im very happy whenever I see somebody actually do the swap instead of just another person that "plans" and never does.

Hurricane Wilma, you can blow me!

I'm back guys! After 7 FULL days with no power I'm back with power and phone (hot showers to take place shortly).

I lost a big tree and most of another. The lack of hot showers, washer, dryer and tv wasn't so bad since we had cool weather, but it was a kick in the ass.

It's good to be back...just in time to leave for SEMA!
