[DeTomaso] Mech vs electric oil pressure gauges

[Peter Kovacs]

...only an issue if it breaks, but the other side of the coin....paying extra $ to add more electrical items to a Pantera?? I'd opt for the mechanical but am curious as to the responses from the rest of the crew.

Has anyone looked at the advantage/disadvantages of mechanical versus electric oil pressure gauges?  The gauge I want is like $180 electric and $40 mechanical.  Not an insignificant difference.  I'd guess the response time is quicker for the electric, but in seconds or in milli seconds?  I'd guess the mechanical is more reliable.
   
  I know we don't want mechanical fuel pressure gauges in the cabin, but is the oil line an issue also?
