Mech. vs Elec. Gauges

[No Groc Getter]

I've had both Auto Meter mechanical and electric oil pressure guages in my car and prefer mechanical. It has been a while since I saw the electric one so don't flame me if I'm wrong on this, but there are only like 10 graduations from 0 to 100. On the mechanical it is every 2 PSI from 10 on.... I like that much better. The mechanical came with small capillary tubing that crimped, so it was kind of delicate. I eventually ran a long braided steel line into the car. (If you run the braided steel line it will be a handful whereever you put it. I put mine in with the AM kit with the AC vents.)
