I've got the CF dash and have started thinking about its layout. Leaning towards the competition style gauge setup but am also going with the 2 5/8" secondary gauges and 4.5" for the larger ones from Speedhut. With the new dash and the inset that it has for smaller buttons at the bottom, I was thinking about working my way up from there to space them out correctly, but anyone know what the 'safe' space radius is from the top of the dash to the top of the gauges? I know mounting the body is always the gold standard but for reference.

You could always put the body on temporarily, slide the dash all the way up to the underside of the body then trace the location of the frame on the back side of the dash.

I did that last time but had more helpers. The current lot of laborers in the house are not reliable.:p
