Hee everyone,
I am still rebuilding my Camaro and making it ready to adapt en LS1 engine later on.
I am just finisching the dash insert for the paintshop to have it painted in the body color, like the last one I had.
I am adding indicator LED's in the center part, here are the ones I want to have:
-Turn signal indicators offcourse.
-High beam (connected to the headlight dimmer switch)
-DIM/low beam Connected to the healight switch)
-Back-up (will be connected to the back-up light output on the upcoming 4L60e tans)
-Fans high (will be connected to the output power wire on the high fans relay)
-Fans Low (will be connected to the output power wire on the low fans relay)
-SES (connected to the 5v PCM output, is this a ground and power?)
-Alt/GEN (connected to the charging wire on the alt, or is there any output like this on the PCM?)
-Brake oil pressure (connected to the pressure sensor in the proportion valve)
-Engine Oil pressure (is there any PCM output for this, or do I need to make my onw unit with the autometer pressure sensor I have?)
-I also want to add a fuel almost empty warning light to it, how can i do that?
(I am using an '00 fuel tank, but probably with a new vertical 0>90 Ohm fuel level sender from autometer)
-Maybe I will add a seatbelt warning light or a unused light to keep options open, only that light will then miss the engraved incription underneed...
These are the lights I will be adding to the dash, is there any other which could be very handy with an LS1? Did I miss out anything?
I hope you guys can help me out and answer all my questions.
thanks

Hee there,
I have been searching, I could wire the empty fuel warning light, oil pressure warning light and a third option light with the autometer Tri-Alert™ Triple Gauge Warning System. Or is there a cheper solution to wire those up?
and still; How about lights I could be missing out on?
Thanks
