I am replacing the original non-rallye gauge cluster on my 73 barracuda with a Classic Industries cluster and also replacing the entire wiring harness using an AAW kit.
The original stock cluster uses a stock voltage limiter. Both the Classic kit and the AAW kit make no mention of requiring a voltage limiter for the fuel and temp gauges.
I will replace the temp sending unit with the one supplied in the Classic kit, but plan on using the existing stock fuel sending unit.
My question is: Was the original voltage limiter in the system to protect the fuel sending unit or the fuel gauge? Do I need to limit the voltage to the sending unit?

The voltage limiter reduces the voltage to 5v. If there are no provisions or instructions to install the voltage limiter. I would say it's not needed. If all else fails read the instructions or contact the retailer or manufacture. Some one here has probably done this. They might let you know.
