F-600 instrument cluster

Post by Kurt Combs »

Does anyone know if the F-600 gauges are more accurate than the stock ones that came in my 1972 F-250? I would really like to have some idea if my oil pressure is low and whether, or not, my 360 is really running dead cold. I could go to aftermarket, but then I would have to look at the old disconnected gauges and the new ones under the radio.

FWIW....the sending units have to match the gauge you're using. Don't know for sure if the sending units for an F600/361xd have the same range as the senders for, say a F100/302. Check what year the cluster is & get the matching sending units if there's any question.

Why not put the new ones IN the F600 panel? ;)
