If you’re looking to upgrade your Chevy Nova’s dashboard, let me tell you, this MHX Series instrument system is a game changer. It fits right in with a direct bolt-in setup using either an OEM or reproduction bezel, which you can grab separately. So, if you’ve got a 1962 model, just pair it with a 1963-65 bezel, and you’re good to go.

What really stands out about this system? For starters, the fully lit needles and backlit faces make everything easy to read, even in bright sunlight. The LCD message centers are super clear and give you all the info you need at a glance. But it’s not just about looks—inside, you’ve got micro-controlled precision stepper motors and solid-state sensors that deliver accuracy like you wouldn’t believe. Plus, you can customize the display feedback to suit your style. And let’s not forget, Dakota Digital backs this with a limited lifetime warranty, so you know they stand by their work.

Made in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, this kit doesn’t just meet the standard; it sets a new one for the industry. Here’s a quick rundown of what you can expect:

• Speedometer: It goes from 0 to 120 MPH, and if you need metrics, there’s an optional version that hits 0-195 km/h.
• Tachometer: Ranges from 0 to 8,000 RPM—perfect for those high-revving moments.
• Oil Pressure: Measures from 0 to 80 psi, so you can keep an eye on your engine health.
• Water Temperature: Monitors from 100 to 260°F (or 40-120°C for the metric folks).
• Fuel Level: Clear indicators from empty to full, so you won’t be left guessing.
• Voltmeter: Covers 9 to 17 VDC, keeping your electrical system in check.

The backlighting is top-notch, too. Each number and indicator is illuminated by a series of LEDs, ensuring you can read everything at a quick glance, even when you’re in the thick of it.

Now, let’s talk about the digital message centers. You get a one-time user-settable odometer that can track up to a million miles, dual trip meters, and even a clock. For performance junkies, there are timers for 0-60 MPH, quarter-mile times, and high-speed recalls. It’s like having a personal racing coach right in your dashboard!

Built-in indicators for turn signals, high beams, check engine, and more keep you informed without cluttering up your space. Just keep in mind, if you need extra indicators, you might have to repurpose some unused ones.

As for installation, the kit comes with everything you need—water temperature and oil pressure sensors, plus a cable-driven speed sensor that replaces the old Ford or GM style cables. It even includes bushings for various thread sizes, so you won’t be left scrambling for parts.

And calibrating this system is a breeze. With just a push of a button, you can set your speedometer, adjust the cylinder count, and tweak the fuel gauge. Those buttons are easy to mount in a spot that works for you, making it user-friendly.

In short, if you want to bring your Nova’s instrumentation into the modern age without losing that classic feel, the MHX Series is where it’s at. It’s got the looks, the technology, and the reliability that any car enthusiast would appreciate.
