Here are the pics I promised.
Top is before and bottom is after. Now the gauges have the white needles. After a bit of research I found that the oil pressure gauge problem may be from the fact that I had it in the non lightning cluster. Don't know for sure until I test it in the lightning cluster.
How is everybody today?

Looks good, Jeff- now the truck will be 35 mph faster on the top end
I see you used about a half a tank testing the new cluster out....

Yea I got on I-80 and used my GPS to figure how far off the speedo is. Just ordered the blue flames gauge faces off ebay. I should have waited to install the speedo until they arrived but... Decided not to
Would have used the whole cluster from the lightning (would have been easier) but apparently the '94 lightning has a different ABS setup than my truck.

Well at least you have plenty of practice removing the cluster, so you'll know what you have to do when you get the new gauge faces.

Yea, Getting better at it each time. The before pic is actually an after pic as well. Truck didn't come with a factory tach
Also, on an unrelated topic, a Realtor contact of mine has a sig. along the same line as mine so I am going to be quoting him in my sig.

No, the top one is the after... he magically gained a 1/2 a tank.
Looking good Jeff.

One of his many skills is operating that turbocharged pogo-stick of his!
