I know, I know..... I'm a retard.....

A few of you are probably in college or taking some math/science course right now. It's been so long ago since I was in school..... please convert:

2 5/8 to metric in millimeter. Thanks....
;)

If not will somebody please direct me where to find a triple gauge pod with 60mm hole.....

thanks pdigg. That will be too big for a 60mm gauge. I guess I'll have to keep looking or just custom my own.... back to the drawing board....

yeah at first i was thinking..."that should be 60" because its the next logical step up "metrically"
crazy america and its numbering system

Dude, how about 2 1/16 in mm? I'm thinking about just boring it out and make it 60mm. Thanks pdigg:yes:

Its inches * 25.4 to get the millimeter conversion :)

2 1/16 = 52.3875

^thanks man.

I think I should be able to bore out 6mm to make my gauges fit from a triple 52mm gauge pod

lemmi guess... fitting autometer gauges in a gauge pod made by greddy or someone?

^ ha ha ha... great guess! But it's the other way around. Trying to fit the GReddy warning gauges, 3 of them in 60mm: Boost, A/F ratio, and EGT to an autometer 52mm gauge pod...

Google is our friend:

You can actually use Google to do conversions / calculations

Just a little tip that might come in handy later on.
