Just walked in the door from a long day on the job......thanks for all the comments.....I actually planned on cleaning up the welds and thanks Dave for the offer

I'm still leaning towards polishing up the perimeter and doing the center in more of a satin finish.....the gauges are amazing and for all 6 including the dimmer & hall effect sensor for the speedo cost $435 to my door.....I hooked up the speedo and as stated before the through the face lighting is unbelievable....has a choice of either white or amber.....I'm going to install a single pole dbl throw switch so I can change the color at will

Hope to fire up the 408 in the near future....still have headers and a ton of other chit to buy c'mon lotto
