ha ha that's any early 82 to like 85?, maybe, style gauge setup
it only goes up to 85mph thought.
you can find them cheap as far as i know,
most people want take those out and put the 145mph gauge in.

Welcome to TGO. 82-84 Camaro. Not a desirable piece unless you're looking for an OE replacement. As Mailbox suggests, most members toss it for something a bit more modern.

Re: wiered cluster ??

Personally I think I would add this cluster to my car for a little while just to mess around with it. I think its kind of interesting how its double sided.

Re: wiered cluster ??

'83 base cluster,'82 and '84 are almost the same but
each year has slightly different markings and numbers.

Here's what I found once upon a time:

I've been searching for a 5500 red line tach to mate to my new motor. What I found at the bone yard was surprising--perhaps because I'd never really looked before. In the first car I checked, an 82-84 Camaro, the red line was 5500. The yellow line at 5000, however, wasn't solid but rather a series of hash marks, IIRC. The second car, another 82-84 Camaro, was also equipped with a 5500 red line. This one had a solid yellow line as do the newer tachs (85-89?), but the font for the numbers was completely different from all others I found.

I have that cluster as well from an 85.

Is a 89 IROC 350 TPI 145mph cluster plug and play on a car with an 85mph cluster?

Yes. But to avoid any possible electrical problems, swapping only the speedo head is the best bet.
