Original Gauges... removed or not

[mdrob1985]

Learjetter, I am purchasing a 77 P337G that has 2 old EDM 700’s and Shadin digiflo. I want to go with 2 GI 275’s for EIS and new CIES senders to get the most accurate fuel on remaining possible. Since you’ve had that same install for a while now, are you still happy with the performance. Thanks!

Hello
Thanks for your reply. My installation will be done soon. I will finally have my plane back end of this week ...so I can't tell you but I guess it will be great. I wanted to keep the old gauges but my avionic work shop told me it was too complicated.

Yes. The GI-275 EIS with CiES senders is a very nice bit of kit.

Thank you! Now I just need to determine how to place them in the panel so they are center facing the left seat. I'm going to move an Aspen pro to the right seat as the backup and locate it where the current RPM/MP gauges are setting. I'd love to just remove all the old gauges to reduce the bird's nest of old wires and cut weight, but I have heard they might somehow be connected to the AP system, so fearful of doing that for now.

Hello
I send you a pic of my "almost finish panel.
I add a STEC 55 x auto pilot but I have some issue to find a BELCRANCK PN 1462000-2

This is what you need:
Its the RH bellcrank for your Autopilot servo. This has a bracket included.
