    Yup. I also have an ultraguage, what i noticed is the stock temp guage only gets to the final resting location when your are almost exactly at 185°F, any lower than that i noticed that its noticeably below that final resting spot. Same with the oil pressure gage, if im not at fully warmed up temp, the oil pressure is slightly above middle.

    That's where it "should" be, but the temperature gauges are more like idiot lights since by the time they start moving it's probably too late. It more of just lets you know if the engine is warmed up or not, and not much more.

    Ty for that info.Much appreciated! My oil pressure upon excelerating goes just past mid mark. As she warms to full op. Temp. It’s just below mid mark. Also something I noticed on highway yesterday,voltage reading @ idle just below mid mark. After excel goes just past midway. I want to say 13,14 amps. Thx again for all your insight & help
