GAUGE INSTALL KIT FOR LS ENGINES, INCL. FITTINGS, SHORT TEMP SENSOR, MANUAL

The adapters are for if you have short sweep electrical gauges that use parts 2258 and 2242 respectively. I would take a look at the manual "Download PDF" as it would have all the information you may need for hook up on an LS Motor and contact our service department if you have questions.

lq9 is an ls based engine. it's the 6.0 ls engine with the truck intake etc. so it will fit the metric ports such as the oilpressure port and the heads for the coolant temp sensor. the resistor is for your rpm gauge to work correctly. you will have to jump that into ur signal wire to the gauge and set at 4 cylinder.

The 5284 is only for LS motors, which used a smaller metric threaded port. Your 350 likey has a ½ NPT port, which is the standard fitting that will be included with all of our mechanical temp gauges.

Hi, This 5284 LS Install Kit is for water temp and oil pressure. The standard install for an oil temp gauge is directly into the oil pan. We do offer a weld in bung: https://www.autometer.com/1-8-npt-weld-in-adapter.html Thanks, Jim

P/N: 2259.

Hi, This Auto Meter sender will not work with your VDO gauge. Thanks, Jim

This is normal to see as the threads are NPT so they will tighten down finger tight and then only need 2 turns on the wrench to get it properly snug.

Thank you for your question. The adapters have a 1/8" NPT that the P/N: 2242 uses. The 2242 will work with this kit and any of our short sweep electric gauges.
