Re: modifying 4.8 vortec wire harness need help.......

gauges, you have to have the comp reprogrammed to sent out a v-8 tach signal, you can drill and tap plate above oil filter to make oil gauge work, rt head near the rear their is a plug you can remove redrill and tap for temp sending unit.
if using a transmission that doesnt have a speedo cable you need an eletronic speedometer (definatly cheapest and easiest fix, but not the only way to do this)
im putting an eletronic speedo behind my factory gauge face and needle. im thinking a 94ish s-10 speedo will "work"
