I went with the Autometer. They're not even close to anything original, but they had some specific features I wanted. The speedo is 5", electronic, black dial & bezel, goes to 160, and very visible at highway speeds. Night visibility on all gauges is great. Tach is also 5", has a rev limit pointer, works with MSD from the factory, goes to 8,000. Had to take it out of its cup, and fabricate a bracket to fit it in the dash. Had to use flat black model paint on the silver bezel. The rest are "Z" series right out of the box. Gives the dash sort of an all business street rod look.

Quality wise, they're probably comparable.

Service wise, AM promptly took care of some small issues I had.

I understand that AM now makes a set of original "Smiths" look alikes. Check around this forum and see who sells them.
