What is the U14 Optional Gauge Package?
U14 is special instrumentation, it includes speedometer and tachometer, and smaller temperature, ammeter (voltmeter began in 1976) and clock gauges in main panel. Usually required V8 engine. The standard “tell-tale” gauges comprises of a speedometer on the left, and a gas guage in the right center. The outer gauge pods are fitted with warning lights for oil, volts & temp.

To tell the 2 boards apart is easy…. the standard circuit board has lightbulb sockets where tell-tale gauges go. U14 circuit boards will have provisions for the gauge sensors to screw into the circuit board (with round copper contacts where gauges would be placed). If you look at the circuit board, the black plastic plugs are the lightbulb sockets.
