120MPH Gauge cluster - direct fit for 83??

I found a beautiful gauge cluster on an 89 Firebird in the junk yard and it has the carbon-fiber looking 120mph gauge cluster. It is a V6, so can I just take a V8 tach and bolt it in? Also, my car has a cable-driven speedometer, and this one is electric, which I would rather have anyway. How can I convert my car to electric speedo? Other than that, is there any reason it won't just bolt right in?
