1975 - 1979 X-body Nova LS Gauge Components

Late Nova and Ventura LS swaps use the same two gauge parts BRP sells for its other LS chassis. The Oil Pressure Adapter Fitting gives a traditional oil pressure sensor a home on the LS. The Tach Adapter turns distributorless ignition into a signal an older style tach can read.

  • Traditional pressure sensor fitting
  • Converts the LS rpm signal
  • Harness not included

The conversion kit, mounts and the rest of the swap are on the 1975-1979 X-Body Nova LS page. All chassis are grouped on the LS swap gauge components hub.
