I'm using all stock gauges. It is typically not hard to adapt stock sensors to the motor. Speedo can be more expensive, but they sell boxes to convert the computer signal to a mechanical speedo.

You may want to consider aftermarket gauges. Lots of times they work better and are more accurate than stockers. Can be big bucks though.

Im using a Garmin Nuvi GPS for speedo and odometer, Sunpro for the rest.

Mine will be from speedhut.com. Check out the GPS speedometer if you want something easy!

My speedo has a cable that went into the old tranny, now I have a 4l60e.

For the speedo, look into the "cable-x" or you can have the 4l60e modified to accept the 700r4 cable driven tailshaft and then you can keep your original speedo, or you can have your stock speedo converted over to accept the electric signal from the 4l60e. The cheapest alternative is to purchase an electric speedo. As for the voltage, temp, and oil gauges, you can buy some adapters that will allow you to run the senders from your original engine and operate your vehicles existing gauges.

Stock guages..

Temp guage.. LS1MCSS turned down a stock sender for me to fit the passenger head



Oil guage... On my LS2 I pulled the GTO sender out just behind the intake and bought a 1/4 npt adaptor for the stock MCSS oil pressure sender..

Voltage... No adaptaion so was a no brainer...

Gas... I used an EFI baffled tank out of a similiar year 4.3 liter Monte Carlo so it worked fine with the stock gauge.. I reworked the return line and replaced the pump but left the sending unit as is.

Speedo.. As said before you can go a few different routes.. I kept my stock speedo and used the trans tailshaft kit because I needed to change from the GTO tailshaft to get the trans mount closer to the X-member anyway so I chose to go with this guy.. My Monte is on the home page...

I got a cluster (not an instrument cluster) sunpro oil and voltage gauge, a led overtemp indicator (for now til I adapt my sunpro mechanical gauge), using my HTC evo with a speedo app. I plan on getting a speedhut setup though.

I neglected to add the tach because I was in the middle of putting together the circuit from the attached diagram from the link attached.

Along with setting the correct tach output resolution which has a high and low setting.

Mine was set at 6 / 6 while it needed to be 3 / 3 for a 8 cyl tach.


Worked perfectly..

Whats an "Antalog guage"

My Ingrish not so well and may be a bit rusty but from everyone elses response I'm assuming you mean ANALOG GAUGE?

Some are replacing all gauges with Sunpro or Digital dashes.

It's when an ant sits on your dashboard while holding a log book. DUuuuH
