When swapping the st205 3sgte engine into the GTS (GT) model do you need to changed the transmission as well? I'm asking this because I have talked to a shop that will be installing the ST205 3sgte engine in my car and he said no.
The shop is only charging me 5-6 grand canadian. Is that worth it? |

Your clip should come with the gauge cluster with the tach that has the higher numbers, but you don't need it, because your engine will redline at 7,000 RPM, and the stock tach goes up to 8,000. If I were you, I'd swap it over just so that your redline is in the correct place, but if you're not going to, then please let me know if I can buy it from you. I simply need a new one because my redline will be higher than 8,000 RPM, so I won't know exactly when to shift without a different tach.
And by the way, that sounds like a great price for all of that.
