well.. either or. lol looking for the cheap way to do the gauges. the 10 point would make the whole dash a pain but trying to find out options and advise from people that have done it. i seen his monte. that looks amazing. he did a great job. do you have pics of the finished product of just gauges? how hard was it? thanks guy
Yea his car did look sharp..alot better than mine. I set them in place for now, eventually I'll fill it in and customize it.
Here is the best pic I could find..test fitting the B&M Ratch Shifter..

i just went through your entire build. great work the merv. my dads got an 87 ss. always been fond of those cars. my last drag car was an 80 cutlass that got stolen right after completed. so now its turbo ls grand national time. lol is that what the gauges look like now? If you had it to do again. would you? or buy aftermarket? is there a reason you went with the full tank with a drop in, instead of a cell with external pump? im going to be running e85 with hopefully 650 rwhp. I've seen people use both but Ifigured its best to just run a big cell.

I needed a shift light and it was a good price. The Gauges have everything and they are fully functional
I wanted the car to use factory parts, I drive it all the time. It's a street car so no need for race stuff. I wanted them Gauges, I like the way they look, and they function well.

I cut it down and got it in as far as I could. Eventually it'll be flush sunk. I'm half-tempted to pull it out and take it somewhere, and have it professionally done to where it's nice and bolts right in.
