Re: 67-72 Electric speedo
That's the long and short of it, yes. You will also need a certain amount of patience! This is do-able, but isn't just a couple hour job. It takes some fiddeling with it to get everything just right.

Re: 67-72 Electric speedo
What did you snag those light fixtures out of? Those don't look like the ones in my cluster.

I will help everyone with any problems you may encounter when doing this, but all the questions will have to be posted in this thread.

Re: 67-72 Electric speedo
THey are actually out of a '65 chevy. They are sockets that ground to the tin, just like the heater control light in a '67-'72.

Re: 67-72 Electric speedo
How do you go about getting the original numbers off the gauge face before you painted the new ones on? Sanded or what? Thanks.

Re: 67-72 Electric speedo
Couple of questions:
1.) what kind/brand of paint is it you are using to airbrush the stencil? 2.) Is that a factory or aftermarket tach you are using? Did you have to modify it to work on an LS motor? 3.) any chance you have a wiring diagram of what you made? Thanks for sharing this modification. |

Re: 67-72 Electric speedo
Yes, there are more available.

2) It's an aftermarket tach, you just need to set the tach resolution from 6 to 3 in the tune. This doubles the signal sent to the tach since LS motors puit out a 4 cylinder tach signal. 3) I can make a diagram, but basically I just wired it like the printed circuit, with a few changes, like the voltmeter rather than the ammeter.

Re: 67-72 Electric speedo
Yes, it's just a repop of an original, nothing fancy needed to make the tach work.
