The short answer is yes, and no. Yes you can put the 85 cluster as is into a 90 van. No you can't put the 90 cluster as is into an 85 van. The important difference between them is how they control the oil pressure warning light. The longer answer is that they are very similar and simple to modify in cases where mods are needed for things to work properly. The 85 cluster oil light works in 85-91 year vans but the 90 cluster oil light only works in 86-91 vans, unless modified, easy to do.
