I wouldnot think so? But thats just me, you should really check some more, I'm thinking I might have to change some of mine, keep us updated. Btw my dad just replaced his gauges in his 84, the first one did not have the tach, and the new one did. Don't think it would effect it?

Which factory connectors are you planning on leaving unconnected?
