Gauge cluster swap??? I was about to buy a gauge cluster off ebay... it came off a 01 Formula Firehawk. Looks the same as my 98...but the guy said it won't work. Any idea what gauge clusters will work w/ what years??

no 1998s are NOT the same, they have a working temp gauge and a different wiring harness going to them.
You can swap 99-02 around, but 98's MUST only be used on a 98 vehicle, or damage will occur (im fairly sure a 98 cluster in a 99 car = smoke, but it could be the other way, either way, it is a bad idea to swap anything with a 98 to a 99+

The 98 models have different wiring harnesses than the 99-02 models do. After the first year of production of the LS1 camaro/firebird, they decided to make some changes to better the car.

allright new question... will a 97 cluster w/ the digital readout work on my 98? i'm thinking it will because the 200mph clusters that granatelli sells are sold for either the 97-98 or 99-02, this makes me think the 97 and 98's are interchangable and so are the 99-02's.

I think it may work. Just not the '97 to '99 conversion. I would call Granatelli and ask them to make sure their data is correct. They would know more about this than most in here would.
