I ran autometer ultralites. Electric speedo, tach, volt,fuel level, and ran mechanical temp and oil pressure.

I'd also like to know what all is needed to hook up a Autometer speedo to a T56 or MN12. Do you need to get the autometer 5291 sending unit or can you use the VSS signal? Does the tranny even have a VSS?

Yes t56 has an electronic vss. I used the signal wire from ecu to the signal plug on my electric speedo. I did the 2 mile drive calibration and done.

I run my Autometer speedo off the PCM output, and use HPTuner to adjust the PCM for tire size changes. I calibrated the Autometer speedo to exactly 8000 pulses for the 2 mile calibration drive (last couple hundred around a parking lot). The GM PCM puts out 4000 pulses per mile.

The autometer will accept up to an 8000ppm sender. It works with any sender pretty much. All you have to do is calibrate it. The hp tuner thing isnt necessary you can recalibrate for gear or tire changes with the speedo. Josh

Cam72aro, did you have 2 wires on the back of your speedo gauge? I am trying to hook up some from TPI and i have 2 wires coming out from the gauge that say pulse generator, one white and one black. My thinking is that i connect it to the white wire and ground the black.

Thanks for your input.

On the back of my autometer speedo I connected the signal wire from the pcm to the wire that says signal. I didnt have to ground terminal that says out or do anything else with it. Just the signal wire from the pcm to signal on the speedo. Then I did the 2 mile calibration. No problems what so ever. Hope this helps, Josh
