Speedo cluster, 351w intake?

Post by jgrow »

Anyone have a speedometer cluster with working speedo and fuel gauge? Apparently mine is jacked.

How about an Edelbrock intake for 351w? Or another that would fit under my stock hood with 2ΓÇ¥ body lift?

Thanks all.

Hopefully you'll find a better option.

I picked up a couple gauge clusters recently. I haven't checked any operations, but can check speedometer operation if you want. One is a '66 only speedometer. One I'd sell super cheap, but I'd have to ship to you. No fuel gauge (you can find them new I think). Paint is failing, needs repainted. Assuming the speedometer is functional, I don't know if the speedometer gears/works can be swapped into another gauge or if this one would need refurbished.

She looks like what I currently have. I think refurbishing mine would be a better option. Thanks for the option though!

From what I've read, if the speedometer isn't working there aren't parts to fix it. Maybe I'm wrong. If you need a core with working parts let me know and I'll check to see if it works.

I believe you are correct. If your speedo works I might be interested. Thanks

Unfortunately I don't think it's even worth shipping it to you. I couldn't get the needle to move so I took it apart. I'm not sure how to describe it, but the gauge face & speedo mechanism have separated into 2 pieces. It's also missing the gear to drive the odometer. Sorry.

Here is a link to a page that describes how to take it apart & clean it up. Maybe you can get your working with a little tinkering. If you think any of the parts in mine might help you let me know. I won't throw it away.
