Gauge cluster with factory tach and vacuum gauge. $300 shipped

70LonghornCST · 10-24-2010, 02:39 AM

Bump for a good deal!

**Dieselwrencher** · 10-25-2010, 10:23 PM

Have you tested it?

**72 LONGHORN** · 10-26-2010, 10:02 PM

New price $300 shipped!

**Dieselwrencher** · 10-26-2010, 10:35 PM

My biggest concern is that the vacuum gauge looks cock eyed in there. Could you possibly take a pic dead on the vacuum gauge for me? Thanks Ryan.

**72 LONGHORN** · 10-26-2010, 11:10 PM

Close up picture of vacuum gauge.

**Dieselwrencher** · 10-26-2010, 11:25 PM

Let me do some research and see what the gauge should read while not hooked up. I'm guessing that gauge may not be any good but IDK.

PT'S 70 CST · 10-26-2010, 11:29 PM

How is the printed circuit board any burn spots tears ect. Has the tach been tested and does it work. This would really help you move this cluster if you had this info.

Thanks PT

I think the reason is that the back of the vacuum gauge has that funny brass bendable tube (kind of like a party blow toy). I think that when the gauge was set down on the carpet, it may have moved, in turn moving the needle. I am guessing this because the first photos show the needle pointing to around '0'
I could be wrong, but that's my guess.

**Dieselwrencher** · 10-26-2010, 11:41 PM

You could be right. IDK, I have never had one but want one. I just want to make sure I only buy one once ya know?

70LonghornCST · 10-26-2010, 11:44 PM

Let me check mine. I will test my theory and get back to you.

**72 LONGHORN** · 10-26-2010, 11:47 PM

Yeah guys that is exactly what happened. Now it is back to reading 0 again.

70LonghornCST · 10-26-2010, 11:55 PM

72_Longhorn, what's the back of that gauge look like? My vacuum is an aftermarket...the only one I could not find in NOS. Anyway, the aftermarket looks just like a long exhaust manifold nut. I have had some Air gauges in the past, and that is what I was thinking earlier when I described it as looking like a 'party blow toy'. Is the OEM GM like what I mentioned in an earlier post--being like a 'party blow toy' or is it like the aftermarket long exhaust manifold nut? BTW, glad to hear yours pegged back down to '0' I'd be all over this if I hadn't overspent this past month...make that this past year

Has the tach ever been tested? I can't see if you answered the question
