Hey g body owners I’m new to the community but I’ve just bought a 83 cutlass calais w 350 sbc. It has aftermarket gauges installed but I was wondering can I convert back to rallye pack cluster and how?

I already have rallye cluster installed all gauges and lights worked except speed, oil, gas and coolant

My aftermarket speedometer uses a cruise control speedometer cable with screw on connectors on both ends.

The factory speedometer used a push on end on the speedometer end. Likely your going to need a new speedometer cable to convert back.

Need more info for the other gauges. What is there now? Is the dash wiring connector still there? Is the current oil pressure gauge a capillary or electrical one? Is the temperature gauge a thermocouple or electric one?
Did you get the wiring harness for the rallye gauges? Pics never hurt.

I’ll take pics when I get home and I bought the speedo cabl with double screw heads but I had to convert it to the bottom pic and yes the car came with the original rallye cluster and harness already installed
