79 Trans Am Dash to 92 Blazer Install*

[92 BLAZE]

Needed to know if their is anyone with Dash/Gauge expertise who can tell me if it is possible to install a 79 Trans Am complete dash into a Full size 92 Blazer? If possible, what needs to be done? If not let me know. One friend says no due to difference in cable/electronic gauges. Other friend says no problem and is very possible? Appreciate all knowledge.

I don't see why it wouldn't be possible. However I'm sure it would be a very involved procedure and could end up being pretty expensive to complete. Anythings possible in the custom world how possible is more a matter of how much time and money you wanna throw at it.

Also, I highly doubt you will be able to just swap the dash in, I would guess the dash of a 79 T/A isn't as wide as an OBS Blazer, so you will end up needing to widen it somehow.

The Trans Am dash isn't as big from front to back, but probably just as wide. If you are just talking gauges, have fun. You will have to make a bezel for them to fit in. If you do this, a nifty thing to know is that the late 70s 100mph speedo can be switched out with an early 70s 160 mph speedo and it works just fine. I did that little mod in my 77 TA, good luck finding one though.

I don't have any pics of the 160 speedometer. Are you talking about just the gauges, the whole dash, or the gauge bezel?
