The gas and water/oil will swap over, the speedo and tach from a 68 on
are smaller but the guts from the later ones will fit the housings of
the early cars and work. You do need to wire the car for the electric tach.
Now some say the later black faced gauges "don't match" the silver
faced speedo & tach, but ALL the oil/water, and fuel gauges were black
faced so if you ask me, the later black faced speedo and tach make all
the gauges match. It's not *correct* but they match ;)
