I used all 3 3/8 ths in my cluster. Speedo , tach and a quad for the rest. Good luck. This was in my 63.

 

Lousy pic but you can get the idea.

 

LMH- are those middle two gauges the 5in or 3 3/8in?

Thanks in advance

 

Oh sorry.....3 3/8

I'm thinking 5" would be to big but that is me...

 

3 3/8 speedo and Quad and 2 1/16 tach

 

This is the 5” Tack/Speedo option. The shape of the plastic is entirely different for the 5” gauges so don’t think you can go to those later if you pick the smaller ones. The gauges are all Phantom II’s. I added a shift light and a transmission temperature gauge where the left A/C duct would have been. In the center A/C duct location I have a wide band O2 and a nitrous pressure gauge. I move the ignition switch to the dash next to the radio because I like the way it looks and it gets it off of the Ididit tilt column. The column was special order without the ignition switch (key lock actually) but it also cost less believe it or not. Speaking of the column, to make it look right, I moved it up 3/8” and down toward the steering gear 3/4". The small knob barley visible to the right of the wiper switch is the base control knob for my sub-woofer. I put the ignition coil under the dash and the MSD Digital 6 in the glove box. I built the switch console in the floor from scratch.

They would be too big in a 2nd gen.

 

From my experience, the most requested size for 62-67's are the 3 3/8". You can fit the 5" main gauges in a 66-67, but it requires a custom built panel.

With the 3rd gens the 5" main gauges are the norm & actually fit the space nicer IMO.

Im attempting to put a set of 4's in my 64.

Classic Dash. I studied all the products and options and noticed some were available with a 5” Tach/Speedo and some were not. After a quick call I found out (if I remember correctly) they don’t have the 5” pictured on the web site but for a little more money it is available.

As you can see the photo on the web site is different than the actual product (which I never noticed until now) but I really don’t care.

I'm actually not using a covan's dash, so whatever gauges I get will be custom fit anyway. I think I'm going to use the 3 3/8 speedo/tach and 2 5/8 for temp, oil, etc... I would go with 2 1/16 or whatever but the gauges I'm looking at don't come in that size.

 

here's a shot of mine for a 67. metrom dash panel with cobalt gauges.

 

Don't have a picture yet, but I went with the 5in tach and speedo and it looks real nice Someone mentioned earlier, 1st/2nd gen should have the smaller gauges and I agree...but on the 3rd gen the bigger ones look right at home.

I'll post a picture when I get a chance.

 

Here mine 3 3/8 option

 

Took me long enough! But here it is. Anvil Dash (matte finish) Autometer Pro Comp. (please ignore the green dash pad)

Tight fit but it looks good man. :thumbsup:

 

Here is a picture of my cluster with new Speedhut gauges. 3-3/8 speedo and tach, others 2-1/16

 

Any issues with the Speed Hut gauges?

 

Speed Hut gauges are top notch!!! I have some in my Dodge truck and looking at a set for my wagon and C10 panel truck.

 

Haven't had the chance to hook them up yet...
I did go out on a limb and bought the GPS speedo. Hopefully it'll be accurate enough and not bring me too many tickets!

 

mine speedo is 3"3/8s and the others are 2" my tach hangs off the column its same as speedo, i use white faced gauges with silver bezal, i used a peice of aluminum where the factory speedo was, turned out good.
