Anyone fit a Holley Digital dash in their Firebird?
I have a 1991 Formula and would like to see if I can fit a Holley 7" or 6.86" or 12.3" digital dash in to go with the Terminator X engine management system and LS3 swap I'm planning. Is there any info on people that have done this successfully integrating it into the Original Dash?

12” pro dash should be easy. Cut a rectangle hole for the digital dash inset in the stock cluster. Then slap a 1/8” abs sheet on top and cut the hood and trim for a tight fit around the digital dash. If you get some kind of bezel it could look really clean. With the stock gauges removed you have like 3” to play with behind it of open space. I did something similar with the speed hut gauges and it looks factory minus the newer nicer gauges.

Are you able to put the stock bezel over the top or is that the finished product? My ears perked up when you said it looked like stock.

if you want what I think you mean ( and u got the time) there is a guy who lays the digital screen behind the stock bezel and then designs a custom layout in photoshop and imports the design into the digital dash and then builds gauges on the dash to match photoshop layout and it looks awesome.

The gauge pod has an internal cavity about 5" tall and only about 3.5" tall directly above the steering column. Best to pull your gauge pod and measure things out.
