Gauge Mod Help

[CornerCarvin67]

Two questions:

First... I can't find anymore the write up on the gage pod modification for the 67/68's... can't recall if Reen did this or not. I can't afford a grand to buy his outright. So I'm gonna make a run at doing it myself. Can someone help me with that link?

Second.... who else had did this? Any big problems? How about the wiring? Did you have to buy specific gages to be compatible with the existing wiring? Thanks!!

Edbert did it, and has a good write up on his website. He helped me a lot on mine. Try shooting him a pm.

2 5/8" fit perfectly but requires a bit of work. 2 1/16" fit okay but only requires washers to hold them in place.
the 5" monster gauges require some creativity.
The senders will use the same wiring harness, but you'll have to use the included gauge senders instead of the stockers. (buying the right fuel gauge will be the only one not requiring a replacement sender)
You'll also have to make your own wiring for ground, power and 12v lighting.
easy work, just takes forever.

if you have a recall on the tach then you will have some problems.

He has some wiring issues I think. I think when he turns it off it runs up to 9k lol.
