I have been playing around with swaping my Vacuum gauge for a transmission oil temperature gauge. I got this oil temp gauge from a 1980 corvette and I took an extra gauge face I had and painted how I would like it to look. With the switch pitch converter I've been told the transmission will make more heat. Nothing to be worried about but I would rather this gauge than a vacuum gauge I think. Would be more beneficial if I ever tow. I would put the words "TRANS" on the lens.
