? about the formula hood
How tall is the power bluge. I was thinking I might put some gages in it like in the old musle cars. I have one I'm picking up next week just wondering what size gages to start looking for thx.

Probably no more than 1 1/2 inch, I doubt you could fit any gauges in there that would be readily visible from the inside.

It'd be kind of cool if you didn't get the full sweep guages (got the ones that only have something on the upper 3/4 and mounted them under the hood inside the bulge. Real stealth.

Some digital gages would be cool, If your creative you could re-wire them to work in any way you would like. For example, Use larger numbers place them where you want etc... I did this to another car, since I did not like the size of the didgets, I got new didgets and relocated them...
