hey do any of you guys know off the bat the size of the stock gauges for the 78 chevy style dash im talking about the small gauges to the left of speedometer, since my blazer came with the clock gauge that dosn't work anymore and i don't plan on using, i think it would be cool to install the trans temp guage in that factory location but what diamter guage is it?  

you can probably check with LMC. I'm sure they have the replacement gauges so that will tell ya what size they are. I like the idea though  

well i checked lmc and they don't state the diameter of gauges, but since i know so many of you fourwheelers have a chevy of 73-91 era with the same gauges, some one has to know the size gauge to fit in the stock location. please anyone?  

come on, please  i know lots of you guys have chevy with the same dash im talking about, but does anyone know waht diameter gauge to order to fit the trans temp gauge in the stock dash hole for the clock to the left of the speedometer????      

autometer has some 2 1/2" or so gauges...  

will those 2 1/2 inc diameter guages fit behind the stock chevy dash gauge holes, the small ones to the left of the speedometer? i don't want to have mounting pods on the top of dash or lower dash so think it would be cool if i remove my non working clock gauge and put in the trans temp gauge in its place so i need to know what diamter gague to buy  

I can't remember waht size fits behind the stock cover, i had a blazer that had autometer gadges in it. I put em in the dash panel with the bezels out, it looked awesome.

that what i want to do  put some auto meter gauges behind the stock chevy dash but for now im gonna start off with the trans temp guage but what do you mean wiht the bezels out? ive taken apart my dash before and am familier with it but what are you talking about?  

I used a hole saw and made the holes larger and put the autometer gages in the dash and eliminated the the original spedo and everything behind the cover..  

oh right on but some pictures would be really great    

I'll see if I can find a polaroid of it, this was before I discovered digital.... like 1990 if that makes sense to ya!
