I believe we discussed this before. As I recall the pre '74s temp gauge reads 10 degrees higher on the face and has a temperature sender calibrated to match.

Thank you for your responses....Looks like it was not the Gauge after all. I had installed a new sending unit and that was causing the bad temp reading...my friend had a older one that we installed and that did the trick.
