Can you put Hurst gauges in a Supreme?

[onespeedyrc]

I have a '83 Supreme Brougham, was a diesel car, now it has a '78 Delta 88 350 motor. I found a Hurst speedo-tach-gauges set and am wondering what it would take to put this in my car? The gauge set has a spot for the speedo, a wiring harness plug coming out of the back. I also noticed it doesn't have a gear indicator on it since the Hurts is a floor shift. I know I'll need new sending units for the water, oil.

Those gauges are not from an 83-84 Hurst Olds.
Hursts came with an indicator since the Lighting Rods top plate was not lit up.
Also unique shift indicator which was different from regular 4 speed cluster indicators in that the "1" was right next to the "2" unlike ones that come in coulmn shift cars where there was a large space between them.

To put gauges in a non gauge car you will need to do some wiring since non gauge dash and engine harnesses were different.
The pin locations on sweep gauges are different from ralley pack gauges.

Good Luck!

I did a little more research, looks like the gauges are out of a 442.

Thanks for the link, there is a ton of info on on it. Can you narrow it down to the wiring diagram? I can't seem to find the one your talking about. Thanks!

if you cant get this one, you can get them out of any 78-88 cutlass that had the rallye pack gauge cluster theyre the same thing, some did have a 120 mph speedo though. There's a forum member that has a decent rallye pack for like $15.

I think I'll save my self some trouble and sell the 442 gauges and try to track down a set of Rally gauges.

Don't understand why you think the gbody 442 gauges aren't rallye packs? Lol. They're the exact same cluster,some 442's had a 120 mph speedo, other than that identical.
