Autometer Cluster Sizing - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

69Custom · 11-18-2005, 11:56 PM

I know I remeber that this was covered before, but what sizes do I need to convert my cluster to Autometer guages. I would like it to look as clean as possible. I think I remember that there are two ways of doing it.

Thanks
Jeremy

2 large ones are 5 inch
Center one is 3 3/8 inch
4 small ones are 2 5/8 inch

Check with putter, he can even tell you gauge numbers of what can go where. he's been assembling a few for others lately.

You can also use 2 1/16" for the smaller holes.

Mudder · 11-19-2005, 10:23 AM

I have been watching ebay for several months now for a 3 3/8 black faced guage and I have had no luck. The Mooneyes clock is about the only option I have found for something black in the middle hole.

69Custom · 11-19-2005, 11:06 AM

Thanks for the replies. I need to use electrical guages since I am running a 5.3L. Which look better in the small hole, the 2 5/8 or the 2 1/16.

Thanks
Jeremy

djracer · 11-19-2005, 01:03 PM

I prefer the larger! Have you guys searched the web for the 3 3/8 gauges? I bought one not that long ago!

c10crazy · 11-19-2005, 05:10 PM

If you go on ebay and type in Autometer you will see just about every type, size and style.

Mudder · 11-19-2005, 07:37 PM

Here is mine with 5", 3 3/8", and 2 5/8".

70c10 · 11-19-2005, 09:44 PM

Randy- your dash looks killer

70short/step · 11-19-2005, 09:46 PM

I want your Fuel Gauge!

Mudder · 11-19-2005, 10:07 PM

Thanks Jim. I lucked out with that fuel gauge. I tried to order one about 2 weeks after I got that one and they didn't have anymore.

**Hart_Rod** · 11-19-2005, 10:22 PM

Mudder,

How long ago did you order it?

Rob

Mudder · 11-19-2005, 10:33 PM

Its been over 2 years ago.

**Hart_Rod** · 11-19-2005, 10:45 PM

Don't suppose you want to sell it?

LOL!

Putter · 11-21-2005, 11:17 AM

Here are mine....similar to Mudder, but mounted from behind....

Usually on E-bay, you can find the 5503 fuel pressure gauge and the 5510 Oil Temp. Usually the seller is DealMonger.

72 longhorn BB · 11-21-2005, 02:02 PM

Hey there Putter,
What did you put in the far side (right) 2 lower holes?

Did you ever put up a parts list for what you did?

mocwon · 11-21-2005, 02:43 PM

Rumor has it that Autometer discontinued the 3-3/8" size gauges.

djracer · 11-21-2005, 02:48 PM

its not a rumor its a fact! If you know where to look their are still a few around!
