Real Jeepers, Hot Rodders, and people that must depend on their
equipment, use a full set of gauges, Stewart-Warner, or Autometer. And
begin repairs as soon as their engine drop out of the safe zones, about
forty pounds hot idle for Ford or GM. Probably about half that from what
I hear for the the 1929 Nash six.
