guage cluster help needed

is there any differance between the circut board on a v6 and v8 guage cluster or are they both the same?

iv got a v6 guage cluster and a v8 guage cluster and sense im doing a v8 swap in my car i want to install the v8 one for the tach. but the curcuitboard on the v8 cluster has a few rips in it. is it possible to take the curcuitboard off the v6 cluster and put it on the v8 cluster or maybe easier is it possible to take the yellow thing. which im asuming is what controls the tach off of the v8 guage cluster and install it on the v6 guage cluster ??

The yellow thing is the VSS(Vehicle Speed Sensor)
