Re: New 382 dash
Lookin' good, but -
If you have a chartplotter, why bother with the speedo? Just put the chartplotter in the center, if you can. You'll have to make a custom-fitted spacer to accomodate the joggle in the panel, but it will free up a ton of space for the gauges. (Just a thought. I ditched my speedo for a engine fuel flow/data meter last year, and never looked back.)
