need help with gauges conversion

Heres the deal I have always loved the look of the 91-92 gauges. But for sniffer reasons I got an 83 so it wouldn't have to pass here in MA. I just got the whole dash out of a 91 RS harness and everything. Which would be easier: Finding the wires that go from the gauges and rewiring the senders or trying to splice the whole new dash with harness into my car? I would think that the latter would pose a problem. Would it just be easier to use the existing harness and splice the gauges into it? Also I am switch ing to an 86 TPI would this pose any problem what so ever with my swap.

I WOULD RATHER PUSH A CAMARO THAN DRIVE AN IMPORT

1983Z28 350w/ edelbrock performer RPM power package , dynomax shorty headers, 700R-4 with shift kit, 750cfm carb, edelbrock 3" exhaust system, 16" IROC rims and ASCD SS hood.

future mods:
completely done over suspension, black paint with flames,
T-56 almost ready to go in, TPI swap coming up

Wifes new car:

95Z28, AT, leather, T-tops bone stock for now.

future mods:
header to tailpipe replacement and a cold air intake. Then I am just going to leave it alone
