Good suggestions Stan. If I was where Gary is now, I'd put Tach and EGT in the 2" holes on left and a Tru-Trak ADI in the open big hole. With the ADI he can ditch the ball, it has one built in. Make a new hole for intercom over on the other side somewhere. There's plenty of room.

Good looking panel, Gary; however, I suggest some changes in instrument positions. You'll most likely find that you will want certain flight and engine instruments within your immediate view, especially during takeoff and landing. I suggest you move your clock to where the tach is now (you don't really need to refer to the clock very often); place the tach where the ball is now (so you can easily see it without moving your head away from your immediate view outside the cockpit); and place the ball where the clock is now. I have mine set up similarly to what I am suggesting, and after almost 1300 hours find it very suitable.
Keep up the good work!
