For my swap I need to install a v8 cluster. Is it possible to swap the odo so I can keep the mileage original?

 

Bump!

 

Need more info. Swaping to an ls1 dash, v6 to v8 swap, ...?

 

V6 to Lt1

 

Same dash. I know the cluster I ordered is fine with my dash but its 2k less miles then my car actually has so I am just wondering if its possible just to remove to odometer from the back and put my v6 one in. As far as I know the only difference is the tach and mph

 

I know on the 94-96 camaro cluster they swap right out... Not sure of that will help since there still no info on what car.

 

Personally I wouldn't worry about it.. 2k less means u gained 2k less.. In the end if u sell it will be close enough..

 

It's a 96 firebird. And I'm not worried about selling it. Just something that's gna bug me lol

 

The mechanical odometer should swap right over. 97's are a different story though.

 

Not that it matters but, heard its illegal to modifie odometer.

 

Which is why I am not. Just switching to keep the original miles. Which is more then the replacement has.

 

Its NOT illegal to modify an odometer to replace the original just as long as it is set to the correct mileage...
A speedometer shop/ repair shop can do this for you if you bring the original one in so they can set the mileage .

 

If the cluster you are getting has a mechanical odometer then why dont you just roll the mileage up to match the cluster you are taking out?

 

No clue how you would do that? Any links to write ups
