If you're looking to upgrade your Chevy Nova's dashboard, let me tell you about this killer instrument system from Dakota Digital. It's not just a pretty face; it's a full-function setup that really brings your ride into the modern age. You can slap it right in using either an OEM or reproduction bezel—just keep in mind that you'll need the 1963-65 bezel if you're working with a 1962 model.

What sets this MHX Series apart? For starters, those fully lit needles and backlit faces are a game-changer. You won't squint to read your gauges anymore, thanks to the bright LCD message centers. But it’s not just about looks; the tech under the hood is impressive too. We're talking micro-controlled precision stepper motors and solid-state sensors that deliver accuracy you can trust. Plus, you can customize the display feedback to suit your style. And let’s not forget the limited lifetime warranty—Dakota Digital really stands behind their gear.

Everything is engineered and manufactured right in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, which is pretty cool if you value supporting local businesses. The MHX Series is a real revolution in the instrumentation world, and it shows.

Specifications:

• Speedometer: 0 - 120 MPH (or opt for the metric version up to 195 km/h)
• Tachometer: 0 - 8,000 RPM
• Oil Pressure: 0 - 80 psi
• Water Temperature: 100 - 260°F (metric version available: 40-120°C)
• Fuel Level: E, 1/4, 1/2, 3/4, F
• Voltmeter: 9 - 17 VDC

The backlit technology is a standout feature. It lets you see exactly what you need at a glance, even in the heat of the moment. Each number, tick mark, and indicator is illuminated by a series of LEDs, so you can trust that you won’t miss anything critical on a night drive.

Now, let’s talk about the digital message centers. You get standard displays like an odometer (that you can set just once, and it’s good for a million miles), dual trip meters, and a clock. But it doesn’t stop there. Want to know how fast you hit 60 MPH? There’s a timer for that. Curious about your quarter-mile time? You can track that too. The performance meters are a great way to push your Nova to its limits and see how you stack up.

Indicators are built right in for turn signals, high beams, check engine, and even cruise control if your setup allows for it. Just remember, not every OEM indicator will be replaced, so you might need to get creative if you want to repurpose some unused indicators.

Included in the package are high-quality sensors for water temperature and oil pressure, plus a cable-driven speed sensor that replaces those old Ford or GM style cables. You’ll also find a bunch of bushings included for easy installation.

When it comes to calibration, it’s a breeze. The included pushbuttons let you set everything up without breaking a sweat. Just mount them where you can easily reach them, and you’re good to go. You can calibrate your speedometer, set the cylinder count, and adjust the fuel level gauge—all with a simple push.

In short, if you're ready to give your Nova a serious upgrade, this Dakota Digital MHX Series is a solid choice. It combines modern tech with classic styling, all while keeping your ride looking sharp and performing even sharper.
