That's a good question - I would think not as the v8 will send different signals to the I6 dash for the speedo & tacho - just like when you buy an aftermarket tacho it was 4, 6 & 8 cylinder settings.....
The speedo gets it signal off the transmission so can't see an issue with the speedo - just the tacho - everything else hooks up the same
