EL sheet lighting is nothing new. It's been around for decades. If you poke around online, you can find the stuff in green.

You had to remake your water and fuel gauges?

sure , it takes some time( no wind from front and no fat Passengers , and i need to jam the Headlightdoors before i want to travel faster than 160KmH ) to get it to 200 but most time , Autobahn is too full so normally i drive around 150 when i make my daily Trip to work.
9,5 L / 100KM = 2,508Gallon / 100km = 2.508 G / 62,15 mls = 24,78 mpg measured last 4000mls 50% Ethanol / 50% Premium Gasoline
with premium gas only i get
8,4L/100km = 2,2176Gallon /100KM = 2,2176Gallon / 62,15 mls = 28,07 mpg
Thats with the black 87SE
my blue 84 4Speed never see speeds beyound 140kph because RPM is getting >4500 then
muncie Performance nearly same accelleration like 88 V6 Getrag
but lousy mpg if u need to drive at least 120 - 130 kph if you want to use the middle lane and not the Trucklane ( 7-8 o clock and 17-18 )[This message has been edited by Fieromaniac (edited 04-29-2007).]

Are there any other mods to the engine or ECM to handle the 50% ethanol you are running?
