Just curious, but I'm having a shop install a T56 in my Dart soon. Right now I'm a little worried as my Dart's gauges aren't functioning properly. I don't have a speedometer cable (it broke) and my fuel and temp gauges pop in and out randomly (potential grounding issue, I think). I know there was a company, Peak's Dash?, that made an aluminum dash that allowed for round gauges but last I heard, they went out of business. The Dart dash is quite unique since there's no provision for a tachometer and the speedometer is lateral instead of a round gauge. Another issue is that the speedo gearing may not be set up properly for the T56 (running 26" tires with 3.55 gears).
What are your thoughts? Try to adapt the T56 to a mechanical speedo? Or try to think of something custom? I'd rather not break the bank (investing thousands into this).
