Hi Piotre,
Are you considering a fresh install or an upgrade? Its the sort of thing you should install during an annual when the engine cowls are off anyway. The big variables are how easy is it to mount a 2" instrument in your panel, and how easy is it to pull the bundle of cables through the firewall. Can you send some pictures?
If you can help your installer, you can do a lot of the work yourself and keep the costs down. Overall, it could be anywhere from 10-20 hours.
If you are installing fuel flow, it helps to get remade fuel pipes (2) to replace the one going to the carb at present.
Have you got an F model? I'd recommend an EDM700, with 4EGT/CHT, OAT, Oil T and fuel flow. Interface to a GPS if at all possible.

Hi Don,
thank you for your quick answer. I'm considering a fresh install. I have a 1965 E currently in escrow and hope to have it in my hands late this week. The annual is due in July, so I would probably look to do something at that point. The plane currently has a single probe egt system installed, but I don't have access to it yet to take pictures. I'll circle back when the plane is in my hands.
Thanks again,
piotrek
