no sohc on a dual cam will work properly. Gauge cluster you could actually just swap out your tach for a dual cam tach. The speedo will work fine.
as for your radiator just drain out the tranny cooler section. if you want you could turn that into a oil cooler.
Also you do not need the 5 speed lower harness on the s13 because the only things you need to wire up are the reverse lights and your speed sensor.
check out the Auto to 5 speed swap in archive and faq section.
