Update on the speed sensor, I made a bracket and mounted the sensor to the front of the motor as well as the pulse wheel to the front of the motor. I ran a quick test to check operation and everything worked well. I now need to make a cover to protect everything. When I set up the tachometer the rpms will be limited to 4500, a little under manufacturers max speed rating, I haven't decided if I will use the shift
I spent a little time making a adapter for the motor temp gauge sensor on the lathe, I had a oil temp gauge laying around that I will use for motor temperature, the manufacturer suggests limiting to 280 degrees, the motor has a thermal switch but I wanted more information while driving.
I still need to mount the battery monitor in the cab as well as the meters for voltage and current in the cluster. I will have to find a location for the tachometer and motor temperature gauge in the truck as well, another day.
