Default Cluster Swap

I'm wondering if it would be possible to swap out say a Olds cluster into my Venture.

Because I feel that my van is running a little high in the RPM range, and I wanted to check it out, also maybe see where my volts are as well as the oil pressure.

Anyone know if it's possible?

Yes, you can swap similar years, BUT its NOT easy. Unlike the old days
of mechanical dashes that were plug and play, Its plug and PRAY now.
The dashes have programming that locks them to the BCM module.
If you swap the dash, it will not match the BCM anymore and will not
either function at all, or have some functions limited.

To do the swap, the dash will have to be re programmed. If your cross
banding the swap, it may even require some hacking of the firmware.
