C/70 gauges into pickup?? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

How difficult would it be to put a gauge cluster from a c/70 into a pickup? I picked one up with vacuum and tach and was tryin to figure out if it would be worth the effort. Would I need the plug from the C/70 for the gauges so the wires are in the right spots or would the pickup harness work? It came out of a '73 and is going in a '74 so it doesn't have the electronic oil pressure or volts gauge. But it also doesn't have the BRAKE light, like the pickups do. Would the OVERSPEED light, light up when the BRAKE light is supposed to come on?
