Rounding out the 1970-74 Mopar E-body family, this bolt-in system brings VHX technology to the “non-rallye” dash cars. Included hardware accommodates the early “stepped” front bezel as well as the later “flat’ design. Either way, your Challenger or ‘Cuda will enjoy twin LCD message centers flanked by six analog readings, built-in LED indicators and easy EFI integration (with BIM-01-2, not included, sold separately)

*Bezel shown in any pic is NOT included, shown for illustrative purposes only. System uses OEM or reproduction style bezel.

This 6-gauge system includes a new, fully-machined rear gauge housing, attaching directly to the stock metal dash framework, then overlaid by the stock trim bezel.

Fully lit needles, backlit faces, and highly visible LCD message centers are a few of the things that you can see which set the VHX Series apart from yesterday’s traditional approach to instrumentation. A few of the features which you don’t normally see are the micro-controlled precision stepper motors, solid state sensors for unparalleled accuracy, and user-customizable display feedback, all supported by an unrivaled limited lifetime warranty which has become the standard for Dakota Digital instrumentation systems. Completely engineered and manufactured at their facility in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, the VHX Series has completely revolutionized the instrumentation industry!

Please scroll through the listing for more information and pictures of this system.

MHX-70D-STD Metric system (KM/H and degrees Celsius) is available as a custom option for no additional cost, but may take approximately 8-16 weeks to build. Some systems may take a little longer due to COVID-19 and high demand affecting production. 

VHX System Includes:

Analog Gauges

Speedometer - 0-160 MPH (optional metric version 0-255 kmh)
Tachometer - 0-8000 RPM
Oil Pressure - 0-80 psi
Water Temperature - 100-260ºF (optional metric version 40-120ºC)
Fuel Level - E, 1/4, 1/2, 3/4, F

Cable Drive Speed Sensor/Generator - Replaces GM style speedometer cables with a 10 ft harness (Tremec and Ford style adapters available upon request).

Bushings - Each kit comes with 1/8" to 1/4", 3/8" and 1/2" NPT bushings along with bushings for 12mm and 16mm x 1.5 threads.

Calibration

Pushbutton - Dakota Digital instruments are programmed and operated by the push of a button. Simply mount the included pushbuttons supplied with your gauges in a convenient and easily accessible location. These buttons are used to calibrate your speedometer, set the cylinder count and the fuel level gauge. Once properly configured these same buttons are used to access the wealth of information located in the Digital Message Centers.
