Default Need plug and play gauges for swap

Hello I did a LS1 swap in my 71 Chevelle. Originally I put in the gauge cluster out of the Camaro I got it from but some of the gauges didn't work after the swap so I have torn the interior out and am looking for a plug and play gauge cluster for my Chevelle. Any suggestions????

Thanks Guys

I don't know of any, but I'm sending my old's rally pac speedo out to get it converted to electronic. I understand the tach signal is a choice out of the PCM and I need to tell my tuner. If you're not wedded to stock look, I thought many of the aftermarket gauges would work. Good luck.

If you have a SS Dash then Redline gauge works does the speedo for $350 and I think they said the tach for $250. I am monkeying around with the idea of trying to put autometer speedometer guts in my stock SS speedometer housing.

What year Camaro were the gauges from? Perhaps you needed the bcm.

The year was 2000

The speedo worked oil pressure worked and volts worked... The thing is before the swap everything worked... When I got the car back from the shop and some of the gauges didn't work it wasn't a big deal to me because I was going to put in a entire new set of gauges and they were going to do that.. Well funds ran out cause the tranny blew up...So now four years later I am trying to fix everything on a tight budget cause now I am married and have two kids..
