Re: 67-72 Electric speedo
Shine up all of the exposed brass, especially the nail head terminal on the temp sender Any corrosion/green color/dark brass is additional resistance and will skew your dash gauge colder. Good luck

Re: 67-72 Electric speedo
Interested in a set.

Re: 67-72 Electric speedo
Hey Ls1nova, I'm interested and ready to purchase a faceplate set from you. Can you please PM me the details.

Re: 67-72 Electric speedo
does anyone covert these as a side business? I have the template from LS1NOVA and can get the parts from captianfab but not sure if i have the skills to make this happen myself.

Re: 67-72 Electric speedo
You might send a PM to member Tbone1964. He is in the business of rebuilding gauge clusters. Also member PGSigns has started rebuilding '64-'66 clusters, but I don't know if he does any other years.

Re: 67-72 Electric speedo

thank you for describing where it is

Re: 67-72 Electric speedo
I cut it out with a cut off wheel and sanded the edges smooth with a DA sander. You're right, tin snips would probably be hard to use and would likely crack it.[/QUOTE]
I took the trip reset off then cut it out with a band saw, and then sanded the burs off with a piece of 120 grit sand paper. Could do the same think with a jig saw for those of you that don't have a band saw |
Re: 67-72 Electric speedo
Are there still sets available? If so I would like to get one

Re: 67-72 Electric speedo
I'm a little confused on how we are supposed to set up the fake face plate screws, does anyone have pictures of how they set it up?

Re: 67-72 Electric speedo
Hey Eric,
Any way I can get another speedo decal sent my way. Changing some things around. Thanks |
Re: 67-72 Electric speedo
Ok. I'm currently doing this right now. I've got a question, when the needle is straight up and down its at 50mph. The sticker I'm putting on straight up and down will be 60 mph. Is the speedometer correction in the tune?
