Finally snagged this gauge cluster from my good pal, will, for those that know him.

see why its special?

 

Yeah, after market with the Z28 logo. I used to see them in the Classic Industries cat. a few years ago. Cool find.

Those were stock in the HO cars, not aftermarket, Rusty had one

What I hated was every other gauge than the MPH as the needles were different

 

thats sweet. ive only seen a couple of them. they go for a pretty penny on ebay.

 

I've never seen one in an HO car--but, hey, I haven't seen all HO cars either.

my buddy said he got it from an -86 .
Vin, if the needle is an issue, there would be no problem swapping it from any needle-matching gauge.. i pulled all this gauge apart to fix the odometer to reflect true engine mileage for ease of upkeep intervals instead of having some random number like 54836 for my next oil change, now its.. 3000 miles, go figure

 

I remember a long time ago gm performance parts catalog use to have those. There was also a dana 44 rear end for our cars

 

It's an issue to me, I would bolt the speedo into an '87+ cluster so the needles aren't different.

But IMO I have a Z28 logo on the dash, how many more do I need?

 

im confused vin about your needle issue, you can swap any needle you want from any gauge, they all snap on the same.

i mainly love this gauge for the lack of kph. *** that. this is America.

 

If you look at all the other gauges the needles are kind of rounded off at the tip instead of having the same style as the speedo, which is like the IROC set.

I have swapped needles on gauges and have broken gauges in the process, so like I said if it were me I'd swap that speedo into an IROC cluster.

My 145 IROC speedo doesn't have kph either
