1990 burb gauge cluster in 1983c10 anyone done this
Was wondering if anyone has put 1990 suburban gauges in a c10 how hard was it? I have a 1983 with a 6.0 lq4. Don't want aftermarket gauges!

I've done it. You will repin your original connector.
I'm using mine in my 85 with an 06 vortec 4.8 and 4L60E. Works great. I tapped the bypass above my oil filter for the 91 oil pressure sensor (you will use one of the 3 wires) and cut down (turned it down in a lathe and put the 10mm threads on it) a factory 80's coolant sender to fit the rear hole in the passenger side head.

Where did you find wiring diagram for repining cluster plug? I have found several and no two show the same thing? Did you hook the vss wire directly to the cluster wiring? Thanks,

Here:
Page 10 of the PDF http://www.73-87chevytrucks.com/tech...10_30_Only.pdf and here: Page A-103 (116 of the PDF) http://www.73-87chevytrucks.com/tech...ing_Manual.pdf The ECM wire for speedo out goes right to the cluster. Check engine too.
