And yea i guess the lesser the sweep the more numbers will show in the opening ....Thanks for the info !! , and keep the project progress coming !!

You really have some history with your truck JimDirt. I didn't get a chance to get out to the garage last night to snap more pics of the gauges, hopefully I can make it out there tonight.
