WTB: 82-84 Firebird V8 tach (or cluster if needed)

Doing an engine swap on my 83 V6 to a V8. Need the tach to match. Will consider an entire cluster if needed but rather save on shipping!

Let me know.

I've got a Tach, and recalibrated speedo from my '83 Firebird.
Speedo is now 150 mph, with label from Porsche, that looks like GM
needle broke off speedo (clumsy me) but otherwise fine
instruments only, as I put electric in my panel, when I went to LS1.
PM if interested- then I will figure out where they are stashed- saw both together a short while ago

I'm not sure... I think it has to be 82-84. Or if not, I think it does to match at least!

Re: WTB: 82-84 Firebird V8 tach (or cluster if needed)

I've got an early Firebird Cluster, Not really interested in pulling it apart. I have no way to test this cluster,... havn't owned an 'early Bird' in many years now ! ( The only thing I notice while looking at it was that the little trip odometer re-set **** is missing. )










If your interested just make an offer and post your ZIP code for a shipping quote.

How can you tell if it's a V6 or V8 cluster?

Big difference I see is that the v6 tach red-lines higher.
