I was considering those as well so I could run the 4L80E without an expensive cable speedo conversion tail housing or cable-x type speedo drive box. Doesn't hurt that I have them in my Camaro already too

They aren't just gauges either. They have performance monitoring features too like 0-60 time, 1/8-mile time and MPH, 1/4-mile time and MPH, top speed recall and highest RPM recall. It also has an adjustable mileage countdown timer for service so you can set it for when an oil change is due or anything else you want or you can do like I do and use the resettable hour meter to monitor how long since the last oil change. It even has an adjustable RPM shift output to connect to an external shift light.
