need help with gages, wrong sending unit i got he autometer pro-comp liquid filled 2 5/8" gages to go in my air vents. i put them in & run the wires for the temp.gage & the oil pressure gage. get to pull the stock sending unit out of the head & put the autometer one in & the stock one is metric & the autometer is standard. same thing for the oil pressure gage. the clear tubing is not the same size. do they sell a conversion kit for this or is there any way to make them work. thanks

Re: need help with gages, wrong sending unit Don't pull the stock sending units out! You need to either exchange those guages (BTW, I've personally had several Autometers crap out on me and have heard similar tales from others) and get ones designed for the LS1, or you can drill and tap holes for the new senders. There are some sites that have info on how to do this, for instance, John Bzdel's site: http://www.montecarloss.com/ls1montecarloss/August.html
