DeLorean Dakota Digital Dash

["Matthew P. Olans" <mpolans@xxxx>]

Folks,
So far I have 16 people interested in a Dakota Digital dash for the
DeLorean. Mark Hershey has graciously offered his DMC-12 dash for the 60-90
day R&D required by Dakota Digital. They are willing to make one-offs which
include all 6 gauges mounted and ready to wire in at around $800. They need
between 12 and 20 orders to consider this a "line" of Delorean digital
dashboards. I've asked if they get that confirmation what the price will be
and I am waiting to hear back. Here are some of the specifics:

The colors of the digits and bar graphs are either blue, green, or teal.
>From the list I found out that the speedometer cable is 7/8". This works
with Dakota's setup. The speedometer still utilizes the cable which plugs
into a pulse generator for Dakota's digital speedometer.
The odometer can be factory preset so you can keep your existing mileage and
continue from there.
The tachometer can use existing wires and I have heard of people also wiring
it to one of the plug wires as well.
All the rest of the gauges should wire as normal. The compatible fuel
senders work on the following ranges of empty to full: 10-180 ohms, 240-33
ohms, 0-30 ohms, 0-90 ohms, and 73-10 ohms. The gauges shows percent full
or 100%-0%. I don't have the specifics on the DeLorean's fuel tank sender
yet. Anyone? There is an optional sender in case ours will not cut it.
The gauges can be set to flash at a preset level, such as temperature
flashing above 220, fuel below 15%, etc...and are adjustable in this
respect.


This is what I have compiled so far. All of this and more can be seen by
visiting www.dakotadigital.com. As soon as I have pricing I will post to
the list what they want for the kit. That will be the last post from me on
the fabrication issue. I guess from here I should maintain a personal email
list to not barrage the list with further "digital" posts. Once more, if
you are interested, please respond to me personally at mpolans@xxxx
with an email and I will add you to the update list.

Thanks,
Matthew
