Idiot light to gauge swap
I have an 84 sport coupe 305, it has the giant gas gauge and the dual readout speedo...is there any way i can change it to the z28 style cluster with a tach and the smaller gas gauge? Is it plug and play or is there a lot of wiring involved with the tach hookup? Ive never done anything like that before. Thanks!

It is plug and play to some degree but you do need read the TECH article on this. I provided the link. Do try to search around but here is the info non the less. Have fun.

Good article.
Not replacing the senders wont burn anything out, but the gauges won't work

Ah yeah i saw that article but i didnt read into it enough. I thought it was just to get the iroc style gauges with the higher speedo. Thanks!
