How hard was it to replace your assumed SW gauges (in those days Smiths were pretty much unavailable) with Smiths. I assume the oil pressure, water temp, oil temp and speedo lines needed to be replaced? Did the holes in the dash need to be enlarged?
The small gauge sizes are the same (2-1/16"). The Smith tach and speedo are larger (3.875" vs 3.375") so the hole must be enlarged. Not easy.
