The metermatch also seems like a good solution for the V8 guys, who can install a Corsa dash and change the Cylinder head temp gauge to a water temp gauge for the V8. Now, as to the vacuum gauge . . . .

This appears to be a well designed product (there's not really a lot of 
info on the web site about technical details) that replaces the 
thermistor with a thermocouple and drives the stock gages.  This is a 
point solution that should serve most Corvair owners well. However, it 
didn't say anything about being adjustable.

The other product was being presented as a scalable device that could 
take any voltage in and provide any (practical) voltage/current out per 
a calibration curve. I don't think it had cold junction capability so it 
probably wouldn't work on a thermocouple without additional circuitry. 
It's main purpose was to adapt nonstandard gages and sensors.

If you have stock gages, the Vairtrix solution is probably better.

If you have custom hardware, the Metermatch hardware may serve you 
better, and it's more flexible for use on various gages, not just temp. 
It's also more complicated than the Vairtrix plug it in and go solution.

I'm impressed with both solutions.
