Here's my problem. I converted my 1948 Pontiac to 12 volts. All bulbs
have
been changed along with the ignition coil and the alternator. (6 volt
starters LOVE 12 volts. Spin real fast!!) However the standard solution
to
run the gauges is to install a giant drop resistor. Seems to be an
inefficient way to handle this.


Here's a solution, not cheap but allows 12V starting while not changing the
car in any way.
