Question Autometer gauges?

Is anyone using their oil pressure (4327) , water temp (4331), or voltmeter (4391)?

I'm currently using the Boost/Vac gauge from this line and really like them. Any issues installing the temp or pressure gauges? I plan to install them beneath the radio.

Those ultra-lite's are pretty slick, I'm going to refurbish the gauge cluster on my boat with them. (Autometer makes marine gauges too!)

There was a thread earlier this week that caught my eye, it seems that you cannot just use the watertemp guage without drilling the block or something, anyone know it if will work with the factory sensor?

I'm using the water temp gauge. (I have boost a/f and h20 temp ultra lites)
I drilled and tapped the sender (1/8NPT) into the gooseneck that the coolant bleed screw is in, easy project.

I have the Voltmeter and it worked good before I took it out.

why did you drill the hole in the side of that gooseneck coolant pipe rather than the top, I assume it ids thicker there... ?
