Engine swap & gauges question
Hey everyone,
I am wondering, after an engine swap.. what would become of my gauges ? The ones in front of me, such as the speedometer, and tachometer.
Would they automatically 'tune-up' to the new engine's performance ? Or they will be completely out of order ?
I'm in a F22B2 97 Accord, is it the same on any swap on any car ?
Thanks in advance

it all stays the same
your sensors read the "new" engines performance and adjust accordingly
you can keep your current cluster
no different

yeah just don't expect it to be too accurate, my V-AFC reads 7,300-7,400 when the tach is around 7,900-8,000 rpm. Some people have better luck though than me.

What's the V-AFC ? A separate gauge system you add around your dashboard ?
How much are those ? There 'is' a significant difference between 7300 and 7900..
Your own gauge should be more accurate right ?

Most oem guages are off about 300 rpm in that rpm range,even ludes that's why they shift at 8K cause in reality they are 7,600-7,700 range which is fuel cut.
