The tach is. I don't think it's a 100% accurate.

Not real hard to find gauges.

www.redlinegaugeworks.com will redo/repair the 150 speedo and reface your others.

They don't tend to get too faded. I was shown a trick to making a nice fascia "pop" again... a very light coat of matte clear spray paint.

Nice to know there is a source for A-body guages, I will not deal with redline again..........................I gave Shannon an aftermarket guage to to redo for me at a car show, he looked it over and said the guage is in very nice shape so will only be $45 to spiff it up, well, I get a call from his shop at time of completion and now it's $95, WTF? quite honestly I didn't see any great difference from when I gave it to him, we live and we learn!

I had my "E" rally gauges re-done. Rebuilt the gauges, freshened up the display, converted ammeter to voltmeter. Still debating whether it was a good idea. It looks nice, its original and it works, sort of.

The factory gauges are slooow and not too accurate as new. Just finished install of an Autometer mechanical OP gauge to get more sensitive and accurate read on OP. When I fire it up, the mechanical gauge just jumps. The factory gauge gets there after a while. Concern is on hard corners where the pressure may drop... would never see it on the factory gauge. Thinking of adding a column mounted tach also to get accurate RPM...
