Is there a way to convert a digital signal to analog so when I do my motor and transmission swap I can keep the gauge cluster stock or at least stock looking?

Not that I know of. Easiest way would be to put the stock sending units in additional locations.
I fond adapters on brphotrods.com. Anyone use these and if so were they a pain to use?

You can buy a whole set of gauges for that.
I know but I am dead set on keeping the stock gauge setup. I will be dropping in an LS3 and at the very least a 4L60e transmission.
Have you taken a look at these gauges? They have different designs and are much better than stock gauges and work with any system

I will look into them. Will they fit in the factory locations? I am keeping it as close to factory looking as I can.
I've used the speedometer converter and it worked fine. I did it for the same reason you are and then swapped the gauges about a year later.
That's alot of money to accomplish keeping the stock cluster IMHO, but to each their own.

So, just that I understand: there's going to be a new crate engine under the hood that won't look remotely stock, and you want to monitor it with vague, 35 year old gauges because you want the gauges to look stock?
I am trying to keep it as stock looking as possible. I don’t like the digital displays and the gauge layout for something newer I am not a fan of. I am making this car a sleeper of sorts
