It should as long as the speedo are the same.

Are you sure the speedometer from the 968 will work on a 944. Dosnt the 968 take the signal from the ABS.

If I tell you can use it, you can bet your life on it.

Hmmm, I have a 968 cluster I just put in my 87 951, Speedo does not work. Not saying it is the cluster's fault, but it is strange
Cheers

You have another problem.
Probably sender contact or nylon gear.
The DME interprets from both drive types and outputs the same signal.
There are a couple videos on the web of my Euro 968 cluster in operation in my car.
