Re: gauges

LT1 harness will not control your gauges aside from speedo/tach

They are salvaged from your original harness

Re: gauges

The wires for the gauges should be in the 10 pin white connector that is attached to the lt1 harness. Label the ones you need and then splice them into the bulkhead wiring from your car. Only ones you need are A,C,H,K. H is under your dash though. The other 3 will come out of the bulkhead connector and they are the same color.
