Miloh,

The dash is my little touch. Nothing special. I made a template simply by holding a piece of balsa up to the original dash and cut and sanded to shape. I can give you the name of the company that made the guages when I get home. The paint is Rustoleum sandable primer. The Aresti and Nav map were copied from the net somewhere and cut and pasted into a word document and resized until I got what I wanted. The "screws" holding the Aresti and Nav map in were comandeered from my wife's pin cushion. I just nipped them to the propper length and pushed them into the Balsa.

Ahhhh.....weight on the Saito 120. If you go to the Saito site, their current 120 tips the scales at 820 grams with muffler. I think that translates to about 28.9 ounces. MY Saito is OLD. Probably 8 - 10 years old (I know, I know) and the Muffler is huge, so I am guessing it is in the neighborhood of 30 -32 ounces. I will try to have it weighed before I trade it away.
