Re: 64-66 Chevy Stock Gauges - Voltmeter vs Ammeter (Batt)?
i did it kinda the same in my 60-63 gauge panel. wanted a vac gauge for the left side (my K10 has the vac brakes) but haven't found one yet that i liked. so i put a $9 volt gauge there temp. tack is an old dixo--didn't want a 8k but the price was right.

Re: 64-66 Chevy Stock Gauges - Voltmeter vs Ammeter (Batt)?
Is that an aftermarket voltmeter or is it an OEM gauge?

I want to thank you for posting your process for Amp to voltmeter conversion, I followed it worked perfect. I modified my dash replaced it with the voltmeter and it works great. Here is a picture of it.

Re: 64-66 Chevy Stock Gauges - Voltmeter vs Ammeter (Batt)?
I went to a junk yard and got the volt meter, have it installed in the cluster cutout thing and ready to install, but how do you hook up the wiring harness to the voltmeter? Did you cut the factory plug and install ring terminals? Any pictures? This is a great writeup, and I tested my gauge before installing. Just hope it all works when I get it back together, haha.
