Will be installing a 5500 with engine board soon and am upgrading from the "Van's" engine instruments.

Are the Van's Stewart Warner transducers compatible with the 5500 engine monitor, specifically:

Oil Pressure,
Oil Temperature
Fuel Pressure
Fuel quantity

Thanks!

Hello Chuck,

The SW oil pressure, fuel pressure, and fuel quantity should work fine. I'm not sure about the oil temp though. It may use a different style probe since we make our own. You'll probably need our oil temp probe.
