Default CSX 3015/Super Snake/Twin Paxton

I need some help identifying the gauges used in the Super Snake. There seem to be 4 extras. I think the two on the right, lower row are boost/vac... but I am not sure. Can anyone confirm what they are, as well as the others?

So the small gauges in the top row are:

Amps?, fuel psi?, oil temp?, ? ,?

And the lower two:

boost?, boost?

I believe you have 2 boost gauges, one for each supercharger and...

2 vac/boost gauges for the cross ram intake manifold. There's 2 of these because the intake manifold is split into 2 separate chambers.
The modern dual inline setup would probably only have 1 vac/boost since the intake is all one chamber.

Hexnut72,

Here's the web site for the guy who apparently rebuilt/restored this car a really long time ago: http://www.wurthitdesigns.com/

There's a link to his rebuild page near the bottom.

You might be able to e-mail him with your questions.

Enjoy,

Tom
