Re: will this work
I don't see why it wouldn't?
All I can see being new is that you'll have to run new wiring for your tach... Someone correct me if I'm wrong. |

HOWEVER, IF you're swapping from idiot lights to gauges for the oil pressure and temp gauges, you will need to swap out the sending units for each as well. Also make sure you have a VOLTAGE GAUGE for the idiot battery light and not an amp gauge as it requires a shunt inline somewheres for it to work properly. I answered these questions for another member in the "ELECTRICAL" section this past weekend. Here is a link to it. http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=294860 By the way, if you want to have some REAL FUN try doing what I did to my cluster!!! That was a real chore. Link in sig below.
