Gauge Cluster

I have an 87 2.8L that I converted from a 700r4 to a T5. I want to put a gauge cluster with a tach in my car. I found one from an 83 2.8 camaro T5. Will it work? Do I need to do anything to make any of the gauges read correctly or is it just "plug and play"?

well right from the get go, no. Since u r converting your basic dash to a dash with multiple gauges you might need new sending units. I can say for a fact you will need an oil pressure sending unit or else your oil pressure gauge will just bury itself, and if you had a temperature light you will need a new temperature sending unit. But the cluster itself should fit where in place of the old one
