Custom dash gauge question

I want to buy a few gauges and get rid of my stock cluster.
speedometer
Tach
Fuel level
Boost
water temp

Will this work or will I need to use special senders? if so can I use this sender?

Edit: the sender is for the tach and speedo

I think we have a cable spedo so you'll need some kinda converter like they said on that site, as for the tach I think our tach signal is pulled off the trailing coils? Corrent me if I'm wrong, but I think you're ok for the tach.

i think you're right on that because i just found out that the safc rpm wire splices with the coil w/ignighter(trailing) IGT-T(ignition timing signal) - that is what is describe in the fsm.
