There are some VSS-to-cable conversion boxes available. They take a VSS signal, and use that to run a motor, which drives a short speedo cable.
You can pull a VSS signal off all of the common GM ECM's, and use that to drive an electronic speedometer or the aforementioned conversion box.
Personally, I would suggest modifying your original cluster, and install a newer stepper motor instead of the mechanical speedo drive. If you have the background in electrical engineering, it shouldn't be a problem.

I looked at the Dakota digital dash and the cost of that made me take a deep breath. I like your idea of a stepper motor. I have been out of the "busyness" since 2002 and have a lot of catching up to do.
