Go with LED's... But for the turn signals use std bulbs.

I used:
Side markers simple LEDs.
Turn signals and rear lights Spoke’s boards. Easy and great visibility.

If you want to use LED lights on the turn signal bulbs you have several options. I resistor... which they sell or a modified flasher. I use the std incandescent bulb for the turn signal bulbs and I find that it is bright enough on my '72.

Everything else is LED including the gauge bulbs... which is nice. On the gauges... the Alternator light must remain a standard bulb. You cannot put LEDs on that circuit.

There are a few PDF owner's manuals on this site. They include the bulb ratings for each use.
