Re: New Speedo Gauge cluster VDO Silverstone gauges Hurst Ol
Hey man.... They are available. What I would do is pick out some gauges, that is the first thing I had to do. Call Brian at Gbodyparts and ask to get an image of the 3 different backgrounds he has. He has one for the 442, Hurst Olds...as you see mine..as well as one that has a Olds Rocket. You will need to get the details on the exact gauges you can use as mine are all a certain size to fit into the factory pack. THen from there he will get one ordered and get it assembled and sent to you just like you saw here.
Brian, Will you give some feedback on your details on the gauge packs?

Here is a couple images of what I refer to above
Small hole underneath into the dash pad. There is a slot in the factory granny gauge that allows dust to exit. I lined up my hole with the slot in the granny gauge lens. It allows a device whether a pick, pen, etc to be inserted to operate the trip OD.

I just talked with Brian as he is the exclusive distributor for these gauge packs. THey will come in a few stages. Stages being, needing the overlay only, overlay with gauges, and complete assembly. He will be giving pricing out as soon as he discusses with the MFG all the costs involved. I may have went a little too quick with the testing and research and wasnt ready for the results yet :lol: Truth is I leave the country today and i come back in a week, to be home for a few days then off to the Gbodynationals in North Carolina. I wanted to get actual results for the show and can answer questions about the install there at the show.

Did you have to have a special sensor part for the speedometer?

Yes it is a hall effect sensor that spins off the trans speedo gear90hurst/oldsguy said:
Re: New Speedo Gauge cluster VDO Silverstone gauges Hurst Ol
that is a nice setup! once I get the "salon" home and start the replacements list, this may have to go on it! between the olds and the buick, I guess I'm meant to stay a poor but happy man!
BTW, I know the speedo is electric, not mechanical, but is that a programmable type(for different tire sizes/gear combos)?

Bad *ss! will we be able to buy the plate without gauges? I would like to do something similar with different gauges.
With the Hall Effect Sensor, can you recalibrate it for different gear ratios and different transmission configurations?
