AutoMeter GM LS Engine Gauge Installation Kit
Streamline your GM LS series engine swap and instrument setup with this dedicated gauge sensor installation kit from AutoMeter.
Product Overview
Installing aftermarket instrumentation onto a GM LS-series V8 engine (LS1, LS2, LS3, LS6, LS7, and Vortec truck engines) often presents a challenge due to metric sensor port threads and tight clearance constraints. The AutoMeter 5284 GM LS Engine Gauge Installation Kit eliminates guessing by providing all required brass adapter fittings, a specialized short-depth electric water temperature sender, and an ECU tachometer signal pull-up resistor in one complete package.
Designed specifically for motorsport builders, engine retrofits, and custom car projects, this kit allows effortless integration of AutoMeter oil pressure and water temperature senders alongside ECU tachometer feeds into any LS swap vehicle.
Key Features
- ☑ LS Swap Compatible: Engineered specifically for GM LS-series cylinder heads and engine blocks.
- ☑ High-Quality Brass Adapters: Solid brass construction ensuring leak-free performance and long-term reliability.
