    28 thru early 30 speedometers are oval. 31 speedos are round. there is quite a bit of difference in the instument cluster size so im petty sure they wouldnt interchange

    If they were still oval in early 1930 they still bolted to the same gas tank in 30 as 31?

    I just went and checked and the round hole plate wont fit on a 29-29 gas tank. No way no how.

    The 28-early 30 oval speedometer dash won't fit the Late 30-31 round speedo dash tanks and vice versa.
