The GMC AD's used full pressure engines so the gauges from those trucks are
60lb.  I found one in a used GMC gauge cluster at a swap meet.  The temp
gauge was cut and the fuel gauge was fryed, but I snagged it for that 60lb
oil gauge.  It's cream colored with a red needle but I can always put a
chevy decal on it so it's the right color, and my '48 has red needles on the
rest of it's gauges.

The bigger AD trucks used full pressure engines, I believe, at least I know
they made 60lb AD gauges, I found one NOS for my '53.  They're out there; I
found two in the last four months without too much pain.  Try checking with
some of the folks with the AD junkyards.
