Hi Mike! To wire it up was not that difficult but there was a lot of it. You need to have really good wiring to do it. I used original Ford parts as much as possible, but if I was to do it again I would use an aftermarket system so much simplier. The Ford system have so many features that you don`t use. When it comes to your question about instrument it no problem except for the rpm gauge you need a digital to analog converter. I have change all of my instruments to Autometer and made a new instrument cluster for more gauges. If you use a cobra DOHC without kompressor it will fit very nicely in the engine bay. Good luck with you engine conversion.
