Which dash should I use?

I don't understnad the logic of putting half moon gauges in a V8 sports car. I really don't understand the logic of making the speedo max out at 110.

I have already gotten rid of the stock 110mph gauge cluster and my options are severely limited for the 91 Camaro as to replacement dashes or clusters.

Keep in mind whatever I use needs to go along with my carb'd buick 455. I think a 4th gen dash would be a mismatch with this muscle setup.

Anyhow tell me what you think...

I should also note that I am not using any of the stock heating/airconditioning system. A/C has already been removed and the inner vent system is gonna be removed when I decide which dash I am using.

I am going with a mini heater from vintage air that will be tucked away under the dash and hooked to the vents and defrost.

Everyone seems to be picking the 4th gen dash...

Not sure it would flow to well with a min heater, which means scrapping the 4th gen controls, thirdgen console, carb'd 70s big block buick and TH350 tranny.
