He can pull the gauges out of that pod and insert his V6 gauges into it.  The membrane is the same. 
There are three kinds of men:

1.    The ones that learn by reading.
2.    The few who learn by observation.
3.    The rest of them have to pee on the electric fence and find out for themselves.    Will Rogers

How about the plug for the link over to the aux gauge?

That plug is in the main harness, not the instrument pod.

I ended up pulling all of my gauges out of the membrane and switching them over to the donor membrane which is in much better shape I have the whole interior tour out right now because I'm swapping everything out I should find out today if that worked.

No not yet, going to throw a new set of fuel injectors in there. It's running pretty rough an extremely rich with those Camaro injectors which sat on a shelf for a year and we're probably the original 94 injectors for that vehicle. Also I'm going to throw a 195 thermostat in there as I am currently not running one. I almost got the interior back together I shampooed the carpets and seats so the seats are not in it right now. I also swapped out the entire interior for a gray and black one to get rid of the brown and tan. Once I get those injectors  I'll take it out at least up and down the Street, because of the coronavirus the DMVs are closed so I will not be able to get tags on it.

I know you have a new fuel filter on the car but when you remove the old injectors, look in the top to see if there's any crud there.  One of those sites we looked at suggested to always replace the fuel filter any time new injectors were installed.  If there's crud there, I'd change the filter again. 

When we replaced the injectors in the Fastback Formula, the tops of several injectors were totally plugged even though the car got a new filter.

I'd love to post pictures but having to use that picture up loader makes it more difficult because then I have to transfer them to a computer and then upload them and unfortunately just haven't had time to do all that. But I will get some here soon Fierofool Has videos of it running!

You can attach a picture directly from the web page.  Some resizing may be necessary, but I use an app for that.
