Do you just need the stencil for painting the numbers? If so, I can get you one for $15 shipped, that's the most expensive part and ironically the one that gets messed up the most.... :waah:

I still have them, but answered your question in the other thread. I am not sure how easy it is to get this to work on a Gen4. If your harness has a "speedo out" wire then I would say it will work. What year and model of engine do you have exactly?

Hi ls1nova71, I have a couple that I'm working on at the moment. One is 2009 4.8l the other is a 2010 6.0. I'll look at schematics and see. I'm hoping I can make it work. I read all 17 pages of that forum yesterday, might not remember all of it now but, great work you guys pulled and thank you for being innovative and sharing with us.

May I ask what paint is used with the stencil? Going to make a stencil to add an air pressure gauge on my 72. Thanks for any information.

I use Testors model paint. Mix a little bit of straight green in white until you get the color you want.

Thanks, will test it out. Still looking for someone fairly local to do the stencil. May have to go online.

Seems like it would be easier to just get a lens that already has an air pressure gauge. Are you trying to change something about it?

Richard 04-12-2017 05:05 PM

Re: LS Swap Electric Speedo face and template
 
Air pressure with 8k tach, putting "air pressure" on a repro lens seems the better route to go than doing the 8k tach numbering on an old lens.

Just got the parts Captainfab makes for this conversion, so I need to get stuff from you now, I believe. PM w/ the details & payment info, if you've got the stuff available. Thanks!

Hi LS1Nova71-
Please add me to your speedo kit list for your next run. No rush as this will be a winter project and I just got on Captainfab's waitlist for his next run of mounting kits.

ls1nova71

Would you mind going over what I would need in addition to your kit.
I would assume I would have to find s10 speedo.

I am running a GM 'connect and cruise' in my 70 C10 stepper.

Thanks

I'm not super familiar with the C&C engine combo, but I don't think that package is set up for a regular electric speedometer being that it is a GenIV engine. Do you have a wire in your harness that says it's foe a speedo?

lutronjim 12-25-2017 10:02 AM

Re: LS Swap Electric Speedo face and template
 
Yes I am currently running a Dakota Digital box to drive the speedo. I have seen signs of it studdering lately and I am afraid it might be on the way out. It uses a wire marked for the speedo to get pulses.

Ok, so apparently that system does have a speedo output. I would check your install instructions and if it is putting out a 4000ppm signal like the older engines do, then it would work. As for what else you need other than my kit, depends on how much work you want to do. I include the face, the stencil for painting the numbers on the lens, and 2 paper templates for making the mounting plate and rear cover box. If you dont want to make those 2 parts, CaptainFab was making them at one time and may still have them, but you'd have to check with him to be sure. Other than that, you'll need an S10 speedo obviously, and sockets for the lights, a small LED for the high beam indicator and I usually put in a plug so the cluster can be unplugged to remove it when necessary. It's all laid out in detail in the electric speedo thread along with directions on how to do it.

Are you talking about a schematic for a '96 S10? What exactly do you need to know?
