i am looking into rplacing my stock gauges in my 1991 rs with a set of autometer phantom gauges but i am wondering if the following stock gauges are mechanical of electrical

fuel level
oil pressure
water temp

You can get them all in electrical, but oil pressure is cheaper if you get mechanical.

quite a little bit of money wrapped up there. that fuel pressure guage is quite a chunk of change.

do a search over at thirdgen.org there is a company that makes a panel to fit in the stock location and they also offer all the guages you'll need from autometer in an all in one unit. might save you a few bucks and some hassles.

Seeing as how your car is a 1991, you should have an electric speedometer. All the rest of the guages are electric. My choice for gauge lay out was to replace the RPM/oil pressure assembly with just an auto meter sport comp rpm gauge. Then I replaced my speedo with a sport comp series electric programable speedo. I have an 87 camaro that required removal of all the mechanical speedo junk behind the mounting point in the dash ( six speed conversion uses electric signal) to fit. I am not sure about the 91-92 but you may also need to do some trimming for depth clearance. The look I am going for is the factory plastic gauge mounting panel, with all the gauges replaced by silver ringed, black face guages. The only problem with my set up was where to put the oil pressure gauge, but in my case I also run a supercharger so I just teamed it up with my boost guage on the A-pillar. This is currently an on-going project as I write, so if you need any help please let me know, and I will give you my experiences both good and bad.

Its expensive. I have a 5" phantom speedo,5" tack,2 1/16" oil press,volt meter, fuel level,fuel press,water temp. All together it cost me between 600-700 but it looks great. I will try and get some pics next week.
