8k tach and vac gauge questions

Whats the secret to converting to an 8k tach and getting a vaccum gauge. Been doing a lot of looking around both thought here and from the usual parts dealers online and havent had any luck. Either it is an 8k without vac or its 5k with vac. I can only find a complete cluster for big $$$. Right now tach and vac are the only gauges i dont have. Does anybody know a source for 80lb oil gauges, i know they came in big trucks but i cant find out if there are any repros with that pressure rating.
Thanks in advance

Send a message to Tom aka "T-Bone". He can tell you. He built one for me.
