Don't forget Tommy.  He's in the ultimate state of finishing off.  Of course at this rate, I may still fly before he does.  After all, I don't have to wait for Tracy now :-)

> Rusty, what gauges and sensors did you get?

I bought VDO "cockpit black" series gauges from egauges.com.  I got an oil pressure, oil temp, and water temp gauge, along with the dysfunctional tach.  The 3 gauges that work are in one of those cheap 3 gauge cluster panels, and are positioned just behind the big hole in the panel that was cut for the EM-2.  The tach was in a single gauge panel, and just clamped to the spar, but I'll have to do something a wee bit more permanent to pass the inspection, and I may have to add a volt meter for peace of mind.
