Is it possible to runn a 95 or so dash without running a computer. If not do I have to run the computer hooked up to the motor.

Where would I pick up a DRAC module, and where would I need to locate it.

Well I'm wanting all the comfort, plus all my interior in my square is broke and in bad shape. I can get a 95 dash for 50 bucks at the salvage yard.

Yes you can run a 95-97 cluster with a carbed engine. i am running one now. The DRAC module is for speedo calibration and can be found under the dash near glove box (passenger side). Use the calculator to at tbi chips to determine what jumper calibration is needed. At first, you might have to go up a few chart ratios to get it correct speed like i did. (i.e. input ratio for 33s and 3.21 gear - 0.605644, closest chart input ratio listed - 0.604492, CORRECTED speed calculation I am currently using - 0.632324) Right now i have the wire from the speedo connected to the output (rear) speed sensor on my 4L80.

How does you are overall dash look? Did you retrofit that cluster into the original dash or are you using a different dash? curious to see.
