There is no difference between the 4-cylinder and 6-cylinder speedometers. There IS, however, a difference between the early (thru 86, and maybe part-way into '87) speedo and the '87 thru '90 speedo. The early type has a metal end on the cable that attaches to the speedo head with a screw. The later type has a white nylon end on the cable and it just snaps over the fitting on the speedo head.

Well, the '94 had an electronic speedometer, so it didn't use any cable.
