After a few weeks of testing and various setbacks I feel pretty good about the basic circuit. I wanted to make this thing Scaleable. Meaning, if you want an audio alarm on Water Temp, or whatever, or you just want lights, it is all customizable. The document has been started here:

Then there are questions I have not resolved like: Concerning the Water Temp Sensor... We can't move what is already there because our vintage gauges need that mechanical signal, so where do we put a second sensor (has to be in water to work)?
Is a fuel gauge (gas tank going empty) something we could use and if so, what can we use for a sensor for that?
I am sure more questions will arise as the discussion develops. Check out the article and let's discuss your ideas here. Thanks!
