what needs to be done to convert from warning lights to guages in a 71 chevelle ss?

If you already have round lights nad not the sweep style dash, you can get a conversion kit from Factory Muscle for about $400. I converted a Monte dash to go into my Chevelle. It includes the gauges, new circuit board, new wires and sensor where needed, and instructions on which wires to move. It was pretty straight forward if you can understand wiring, which is why I had a mechanic buddy help me.

I did find a few things I didn't like:
-circuit board fit too tight behind clock area
-I'm 90% sure we had the amp wiring instructions correct, but it read backwards, so we had to swap the wires in the plug
-the coolant gauge instructions aren't clear on resistor palcement, but it worked out.

I like it, and I'm almost all done with my whole dash swap.

i have the round style dash so i will look into that company. thank you for your input.



edit: do you have a link to the website? i cannot seem to find it

This info might help. Although it says 70-72 it is not correct for a 72.

MuscleFactory doesn't have a website that I know of. They usually have bigger ads in some of the car mags. I had a 04 catalog, and when I ordered, the price was still the same without asking.

I used the azendrud info as a guide, but yes, 72 isn't the same. MF's info was good enough.
