Default Gauges for lt4 engine

Hello guys, I'm putting an lt4 gen V into my 2nd gen camaro. I have new gauges for my car and I was wanting to know if there was anything specific I need to do to make these work? Or would it just install like any other gauge.
I plan on putting in these in my dash https://www.autometer.com/2-1-16-oil...se-cobalt.html
https://www.autometer.com/3-3-8-spee...ec-cobalt.html (along with 4 other units that a transmit data the same way)
and 3 of these in my center console https://www.summitracing.com/parts/atm-2592/overview/

Will I run into any issues with these types of gauges since they're not digital? Or should I be fine as is.

Sorry if this is in the wrong section on the forums, wasn't sure where else to put this.

They should work just fine you may have to buy an adapter or 2 for the sending units but other wise they'll work great.

Have you looked into this box from Painless Wiring?

https://www.painlessperformance.com/wc/60650

Runs off the CAN bus system and provides outputs for any gauge.
