if you have electronic skills you could try something like this
it's adaptable, enough inputs, i'm gonna go for a digital dash in my next build as the project will take me more then a year anyway and the whole CL will be in parts anyway to accomplish what I want

I see several of those aftermarket clusters (sometimes driven by a raspberry pi) installed in some Buick Grand National builds and they are indeed impressive. Since the GNX cluster is demanding crazy amounts of money and these clusters can be made into exactly what you want, it is a great solution for someone who wishes to modify their instruments to display what they wish to monitor and add some customization to their car. Good luck on the install! Is your S65 a 221 or 220?

Although slightly off-topic, it not not wander off-topic from the M275. I must say I don't know what this Turbo Regal started off life as - a V8 Regal or an LC2-powered 3.8 SFI Turbo. So many people are taking authentic Grand Nationals and doing an "LS Swap" in them which leaves them with a Buick Regal - not a Grand National. Not only does it harm the value, but it take one more of these rare machines off the street. Granted, I have no say so in what people do to the car they paid for, but I have noticed a trend - particularly with the AMG crowd - you will see in any instances a Grand National in the background of an S65 M275/M113k powered variant, so it seems they share a very similar fan-base.
What I did NOT expect to see is this. This took a lot of work I have no doubt, and just happens to combine two vehicles I own.
