Default Gauges

so i have a 94 gt and was wondering if the gauge panel that is in it is stock or not. so at the top middle of the gauge in the car is 65 which seems to be what the v6 gauges are and i noticed that the middle of the aftermarket white face gauges i got for a 94 gt is 80. my question is whether or not i have the wrong gauges in the car and if so would i need to calibrate the right ones or are the calibrations internal on the unit and you just have to plug it in.

just concerning the speedometer i dont care about the rest, the first is the gt gauges(0-160) and the second is the v6(0-120). from what i've found gt's are supposed to have the first(0-160) and my car has the second;what's in the v6(0-120).

I got pictures of covers but im talking about the actual unit in the car NOT THE COVERS. basically if i get the right unit(the whole thing not just gauge covers) can i just plug it in and it will show the speed im going or is there something else i need to do, hopefully thats easier to understand
