Should work I have a 96 gasser I'm switching into my 4x4 96 460 truck It almost makes sense to get new guages make up your own panel and stick them in

Would be something like this.
Move C251 pin #11 Circuit #16 to C250 pin #14.
Move C251 pin #12 Circuit #904 to pin #1 C250
Move C250 Pin #5 Circuit #29 to pin #6 C251.
Swap C251 pin #2 & #3.
The 1994 above is close to the 1996 except for the ABS circuit in the 1996.

Ok everything works but gas gauge goes past full. Even tried switching back the fuel pins and it still goes past.
Ok found out the pin fuel fuel with tach did not have to be moved to the other plug, on a side note were did you get those pin outs? I have all data diy and they dont have diagrams like that.

It did work yes. I updated my post. The fuel with tach was in correct plug. And the fuel without tach just stays as there is no connection on the printed board
