For '70-'72 however, the standard SS dashboard was different from the plain 
Malibu dash. The non-SS dash had a wide rectangular speedometer, idiot 
lights, and no gauges. The SS dash had three large round "pods" and three 
small round "pods". The large pod in the center would always hold the 
speedometer. If the tach/gauge option was ordered, then the instruments would 
be as follows : 

      POD LOCATION       SIZE         CONTENTS
      ------------       ----------   ------------
      center             large        speedometer
      left               large        tachometer
      right              large        clock
      far left           small        ammeter (battery gauge)
      far right, upper   small        temperature gauge
      far right, lower   small        fuel gauge


Note that there was NO oil pressure gauge available, only a warning light at 
the bottom of the tachometer. 

If the optional tach/gauge package was not ordered on the SS, then the SS 
dash layout would be as follows : 


      POD LOCATION       SIZE         CONTENTS
      ------------       ----------   ------------
      center             large        speedometer
      left               large        fuel gauge
      right              large        optional clock
      far left           small        alternator warning light
      far right, upper   small        temperature warning light
      far right, lower   small        oil pressure warning light


All genuine '70-'72 SS cars *must* have the round speedometer. However, when 
a non-SS car was ordered with the optional gauge package, it would also come 
with the round "SS" speedometer.
