Help, No gauges working

I just recently got the new motor in my car and running. It origonally had a 305 TPI motor in it, but i had a 350 built for it so i put the 350 with a carb in the car. Every thing seems to work fine (lights, windshield wipers, power locks etc.) except none of the gauges work. Well i havent tried the speedo yet because i havent took the car out. But all the needles on the gauges just sit there and act like the car isn't even started. I think i may have screwed something up in wiring that part of it up, can anyone give me any info on wiring the gauge cluster. Thanks for any help.

No i haven't checked that yet, actually I didn't even think about it because they worked before the swap. I will have to check it friday when i get to work on the car again.
