Aftermarket gauges in the dash

[sui_winbolo]

that is a stock fuel gauge.

It's a bit different from my stock, the needle is orange and has the orange area around empty. But other then that pretty much the same. Here's an old picture of it.

I am planning the same thing myself. I tried the mechanincal oil gauge (bad idea) and had it leak due to the sharp turn needed in the oil tube. Anyway, I am trying to use the factory idoit light clutser and carve t out as I need.

I am going to grab a couple of the clusters and dash face plates i have tommorow and try to make something work. I'll try carving one out to see how it works. I'll post the results when i get something figured out.

That is a stock fuel gauge, but it not a stock 83 gauge. I think it is a later version.

Auto-gage little gauges in the little holes. And a Mallory tach in the big hole.

I've got a pic I could email if someone wants to host.

I have a mini tach in the left upper heater vent....i think its made by Sun or something like that. i got it from Autozone. I would like to have one in place of the clock but make it look as much as factory as possible. Did any GP have tachs????

 

[BrownGP83]

Yes GPs had tachs. They were in the big pod on the right where your clock is.
