Mooneyes sells a clock with a black face that may fit that center hole. Another option if you cant find what you want.

Re: autometer gauges 3 3/8" question

I believe that any performance store,(jegs, summit, etc) should be able to order what you want in that size. Autometer used to make a fuel level in that size, but it is discontinued and nearly impossible to find.

Re: autometer gauges 3 3/8" question

I called the autometer to see if they had any and they told me know. I even offered to pay to have a fuel gauge made and they told me they didn't have the parts to do it.

I wonder if you could have the white faced phantom gauge painted by someone to look like the pro comp?

I'll problably get raped on ebay when the next fuel gauge comes up, it's the only one I need to be happy with my gauge set up.

Re: autometer gauges 3 3/8" question

YEA I just called them also and no luck. they have been out of production for 3 yrs. they only have 1 oil press & 1 water temp in the 3 3/8" phantom series. i dont like the look of them so guess i,am gonna go another route. maybe make a metal bolt in bezel, engine turnned etc. like the hotrod guys do.
thanks guys for you help
your all a good bunch
bob

Re: autometer gauges 3 3/8" question

Guys they're still out there. You just gotta keep looking and asking. I got lucky and got my fueld gauge from a board member (DJRacer). It was NIB from a parts store in GA or AL. Here's a pic:
