Insight Avionics G3 InstrumentAre you running out of panel space? This engine monitor system fits into a standard 2-1/4" hole and has all the information you could ever want with respect to what your engine is doing! It also records what your engine is doing in an Excel file every second so you will never miss that little engine "glitch" that always seems to happen when you are not looking. A very reasonable price as well. Great customer service and support. Check them out at http://insightavionics.com/g3.htm.

Note: The G3 is STC'd for the Seabee so just install it, fill out the 337 (U.S.) and go fly! This instrument is approved for primary EGT and CHT only. The additional features (fuel flow, RPM, MP, etc.) are secondary only but are extremely accurate! The customer service from Insight is second to none!
