I think I'm going to go with the regular ole gauge package.

I'm leaning towards the Anvil or Covan Thunder Road dash's. Both are around $250 or so.

I can't believe DSE charges $575 for their aluminum dash.
Not to split hairs, but the DSE dash is made of 18 guage steel, and you really cant compare it to covans. I have a covans in my 67, its plastic ka ka, fit was horrible and when the guages went in and tightened up, the plastic started to twist a bit causing the guages to kind of point outward.

I recently picked up a DSE dash for my new 69 build its a quality piece, that becomes kind of a structural part of the whole dash assembly. Looked like theres a fair amount of tig welding that goes into the fab of that part, it certainly has a lot of bends in it.
