A couple of points about the ground issue you brought up.

1. The FSM doesn't want people grounding high power electronics through that bolt. The fuel gauge calibrator is a "negative" ground signal anyway, and definitely not high powered.

2. If you are that concerned, drill a pilot hole and make another grounding point.

3. If you do step 2, electrically it's not all that different from using the existing bolt.

4. These kits have been used numerous times without incident. No airbag was ever deployed or code thrown.

The directions say to disconnect the battery prior to starting any electrical work.

Hope this helps!

Regards,
It's worked as stated in the ground location in the instructions OR...Just do step #2 if your concerned Brian. Drill a small pilot hole, then use a "Self tapping" 10mm screw like the ones in the pics (Same type as the small ground wire to fender bolt for the battery).

My calibrator will work for your Z-28 cluster. It's not the cluster that is being corrected, it's the fuel level sending unit in the gas tank. If your Z-28 gauge reads past the "F" when full, the calibrator will definitely adjust it down to the "F", where it's supposed to be.

Yes sir-ee! Still going on and will be going on for a loooooooooong time since I personally manufacture these puppies.

If anyone's interested, I'll be at SSHS and I'll have the fuel gauge calibrators with me. Find me somewhere there and you can save the $5 S&H fee.

I will testify that this does work on 91-93 caprices. I bought two and installed on on my 96 impala and one on my wife's 92 caprice wagon. The number of wires are different(less purple wires on the wagon), but the smallest purple one still applies. And I did both with out disconnecting the battery with no issues. a great product.
