Title: Turbocoupe Gauge swap
Post by: GrannysBird on July 07, 2007, 10:12:32 PM
Hey guys I was just wondering before I go looking for turbocoupe clusters to replace my base digital what all is involved. I think I can keep my fuel sending unit, my temperature unit, but will have to get a new oil pressure sending unit. Obviously I'll have to run a wire for the tach, repin the harness, recalibrate the tach for v8 etc, but what i really want to know is what year turbocoupe gauge clusters are compatible with an 87 tbird?
I think I have the other stuff straight, but would appreciate some clarification from someone who has done the swap.

Thanks

Get a '87 or 88 cluster... Guessing you've seen the info, but Eric has swap info in the Cool Cats tech section...

Here's the info to convert the 4cyl tach for 8 cyl oper...
