Try reading FAR 91 sections 171, 205, 215, 411, and 413. These will list equiptment required and testing requirements.
The FAR 90.205 applies to aircraft with standard airworthiness certificate.
If flying light IFR in non icing conditions why would pitot heat be required? My 1965 PA28-180 do not have it.
My 601 XL has a Dynon 180 and Dynon 10 and Garmin 430.
I use the HSI on the Dynon for the VOR and GPS indicator.

Rich,
Your answer is in 91.319 (Aircraft with experimental certificates) (d) (2) Operate under VFR, day only, unless otherwise specifically authorized by the Administrator. This section does not specify any instrument requirements. However, if you do fly IFR, the following would certainly apply:
91.205 (for certified aircraft, VFR, day) 1) Airspeed indicator, 1) Altimeter, 3) Magnetic direction iindicator, 4) Tachometer, 5) Oil pressure gauge, 6) Temperature gauge for liquid-cooled engine, 7) Oil temperature gauge for air-cooled engine,  Manifold pressure gauge for altitude engine, 9) Fuel gauge, 10) Landing gear position indicator (for retractables);
For IFR, the above plus: Two-way communication and navigation equipment for the route to be flown, Gyroscopic rate of turn indicator, slip skid indicator, Sensitive altimeter adjustable for barometric pressure, Clock, Artificial horizon, Directional gyro.
Given IFR trainers I have flown, you only need one radio for communication and one for navigation. This would satisfy a minimum equipment list. It certainly isn't a recommended list, which would would include other equipment for redundancy, ease of operation, pilot workload reduction and safety.

Rich,

Compass and Heated Pitot included! |
Yes but the compass is required for VFR as well and the Heated Pitot is not required at all.

A handheld GPS does not meet any LEGAL requirements.

Yes

Except for when your panel goes dark. Then it is legal to use a handheld to save your bacon and get to the nearest suitable airport or VFR conditions. For that matter, if you could train a pigeon to fly to VFR or the nearest suitable airport, tossing it out the window and following it would be legal too...
(I jest about the pigeon)

Please note I limited my answers to Rich's last post to what was LEGAL not what was a good idea. I did that on purpose.
