87 camaro gauges

I am doing an 95 LT1 swap into an 87 with a TPI. As you all know the LT1 uses an electric input for the speedo. Unfortunately the camaro has a mechanical 85 MPH speedo. I am looking to see if a later model gauge cluster with an electric speedo will work (preferably from a 3rd gen). If not, then I am going to have to go with a full autometere setup which i am trying to stay away from. If anybody has some later model gauge clusters let me know.

The '92 and '91 gauges use an electronic speedo, but they won't fit in the '87 dash without some chop-work.

For some reason 1990 comes to mind......they might have had electronic speedo's and the older gauge layout, but I'm really not sure.
