The speedometer doesnt work neither does the Tachometer, the car has a SOHC Cluster but its a DOHC engine, just didnt have a DOHC cluster when they did the swap. should the speedometer still work? is that the speed sensor? or does the cluster stop it from working since its sohc cluster?

as for the tach, the SOHC tach will not work with a DOHC engine; they run on different signals. Your best bet is to get the whole gauge cluster from a DOHC car and swap them.
