Not sure what exactly your looking for? I have a 3 3/8" Dixco 8,000 RPM console type mount. Not sure what you mean about a gauge bottom gasket?
You can find them every now on then. Last few I've seen go for 700-1000. Here is one listed here last year.

Hi, what piece are you looking for, these pictures help? If you need the "spacer" A bodies use the spacer I made up a few in solid aluminum. I have sold a few and everyone is happy with them. Mine are much better being solid than the plastic Repo ones...cant tell the difference when installed!

I dont have the plastic, I hear they repo these, not sure who, maybe laysons? The metal piece I do have. $80+shipping Solid aluminum large hole correctly milled. The mounting holes are marked for you to drill as some consoles may have holes already in them so I left it up to the buyer. These are some pictures of mine next to what a plastic repo looks like. The plastic one has machinist blue dye on it (was chromed plastic)

Ok, all good, Takes time to set up the mill and make these, lots of time spend playing around...reason for the price..all hand made on the mill. I needed one so I made a few...sold all of them and had a request to make a few more, after these are gone that's it not making more. These are not just flat, if you look these are also tapered as the originals were. These are an exact copy of the original. The plastic one it was $85 at a well know vendor and it's crap, another reason I made my own! I dont think they sell the plastic one anymore?

I have to jump in here and mention that the spacer that Mark sells is top shelf! I just finished installing my console tach using his spacer....You be the judge....
...and, no, they aren't repro'd by anyone anymore...trust me, I SEARCHED!

I'll jump in and state that $80 is a bargain, in my opinion. In my nearly 40 years of playing with A-bodies I have seen ONE pedestal for sale and it was part of the auto console/tach assembly that I bought in 1981. I have NEVER seen an original for sale separately. I have one that was machined for me so that I could sell my old setup and still keep the Charger clock on my son's console.
