Thanks, I hope the next set turns out as nice..that set grew legs and walked off my shop bench. Also a sharpened rebar rod for the garage door spring adjustment walked off. No tools were missing, no drills, only the tach and speedo...custom with one of a kind label on the dial. They would only be of use to someone with an Hbody..vega gt dash. So, I dropped off the other speedo face and a 7000 tach for an 8000 face at the graphics shop. I'll have to send it to Tim for calibration when I get it back. I know, I know..the 4.3 vortec aint gonna be turning those kinds of RPMs, but it was the original Cosw. tach to the car and it needed another 8000 face. Now I had the choice of putting an 8000 face on a 7000 tach, or, ...spend hours in PhotoShop redoing the image for a 7000 tach label. I already had the extra 8000 label. The speedo dialface image is of a 120mph speedo and it is going on the original 74 without KMH numbers (74 didnt have them) the 75 speedo (missing) label is covering the kmh numbers. 75 Cos dash has 2 lights each under the speedo and tach. The 74 gt dash has one light under the tach and 2 under the speedo. To make the 75 tach compatible, I had to cut the center post that divides the two lights and sand them smooth before applying the label with the one light hole cut in it. But its gone, grew legs. No, I'm not getting cenile..yet....Peace
