Electrical gauge options I bought a Florida 5.0 cluster housing, couldn't afford gauges but now I have some money and want to see some options that are affordable and functional.
Need water temp, oil pressure, volts, fuel for food mustang in 2-1/6
Electric speedo and tach 3-3/8. Oil pressure is the only mechanical gauge.
So what kinda options do I have here?

Because I was going with the camaro cluster at first, was told truck oil pressure sensor wouldn't work with the cluster. So I used the mechanical gauge and line that was already in the car when I bought it. Bought the adapter and ran the line. Oil pressure gauge works fine. That's the reason for using a mechanical oil pressure gauge.
Now I have 4 of the gauges I need and they all match but the 3-3/8 version of the speedo is mechanical only.
I have the equus gauges, I like them and I want to use the matching tach and speedo but I don't know how to convert it to electrical. Cable x I heard was good but for 300 ouch. But will it work fine with the mechanical speedo from equus?.
The speedo and tach are just under 100 each, if cable x is 300 that means I'm back at the 500 mark. I could buy a damn near complete 6 gauge set from new vintage. Any opinions or ideas?

I need to go from a 4l60e to a mechanical speedo....cable x right?
Will the equus 8086 tach work on the ls series motors because it says may not work on coil on plug motors.
