It's designed to fit the new Marquez dash. The 69 Camaro that Ridetech is building for GoodGuys is utilizing this gauge set.

The problems I see with integrating this set into a stock 67-8 dash is the width of it would cause you to have to relocate the ignition swith and the light switch. I'm not sure it would protrude into the dash top as this gauge set says its 7 1/4" in height. If you installed this set at an angle, laid back at the top, then that would reduce the height even further. It's the width of the set that seems to pose the problem. I don't think the factory a/c vents would work either. The factory opening is 13", so that is a 3" deficit to the VHX gauge set.

I have already broke out the tape measure and stared at my dash to see how will it could be fitted.
