Looking on RS Components site there are a number of 10v chips, with varying current capabilities.

Jeepers Peter - you read the detail! Given my application, will this chip work in the set up described in the British V8 forum without the capacitors ?

It seems such a simple fix it it will work reliably?
Without more knowledge of these gauges it's pretty much impossible to answer these questions although reliability will probably depend more on how well you build it!
Did the gauges come with any kind of datasheets?
