Metric Guages?????

I have just bought an 84 camaro. It has the guage cluster with the idiot lights. Any way, the gas is measured on one side in liters and the other side in gallons. Same thing with the speedo. Was this the same in all of the camaro's back then?


Another question was if i could put a guage cluster with a tach and no idiot lights in the car that would come from and 82-84 camaro?

A cluster from any 82-89 will fit right in; the tach, fuel, and volt gauges will work alright, but you'll need to swap over your oil pressure and coolant temperature sending units on the engine for some that are designed for gauges instead of lights.
