I am actually driving the 2" instruments, like Fuel Temp, Oil
Pressure etc. I converted all the 2" instruments to 0-5vdc

Did you rebuild them to use those movements? I've got 10 brand new
air-core motors that I'm going to be using in the F-15.

I found a common Lewis 2" instrument, that was easy to convert to 0-5vdc.
Then I removed the dial faces from the original 737 Lewis 2"
instruments and placed them on the converted common Lewis 2" instruments.

(degrees)
