News on the Fischer/Koso gauges: The supply must have dwindled really quickly. The seller no longer can supply the koso speed sensor brackets with the kit (mine came with them) and the price has been bumped up by $25 to $115 + shipping (still very good pricing).

I'm also fairly sure it's cheaper to just crimp the required connectors onto the wires yourself using small quantity vendors such as eastern beaver, cycle terminal, or any other vendor of hitachi/sumitomo electrical products.
So much is already included in the mad8v kit (harness, thermocouples, etc.) it really seems like a waste to get the koso PnP kit as well.

Although, I'm not familiar with the water/oil temp adapter hardware. I don't know where to source the threaded aluminium fittings. That's a bit of a drag, so it may be worth getting the Koso PnP kit for just those.

gotta go back and dig through all the old threads....
