Let me get this straight...

Seeing as I have a 91 I can swap in a 93-97 dash cluster and simply just spice wires to make everything work? Speedo, Tach, Voltage, Fuel, Temp, and Oil Pressure without a dakota box?

Also, does it matter at all if the cluster is out of a v8 or v6 car?

Hmm... is there any way to get the v8 tach to read properly with a 3.1? I really want to install the 4th gen dash to match my 4th gen console... but I want the 150mph speedometer, which only came with the V8's I believe. Any ideas?
