i have a 1991 chevy 1500 i did this with and you can use all gauges as long as you tranfer the sensors.  i used the factory fuel pump with a bypass regulator which edelbrock makes and if u need i can get you the part number. it was around 50 bucks. the only thing if you choose not to use the factory oil psi gauge you have to hardwire the pump to key voltage and it is a pink and black wire that can be found on the pass side firewall. other than that the sweap was very easy and i drive the truck everyday with out problems. took out the ecu and had no problem with gauges working.
