Hi Bill
Rough cut the new material with an allowance of say 3/8" all around, then using the original screw holes in the old floorboards screw the old boards to the new and use a trimming bit in a router (straight bit with bearing of the same diameter) to trim. No clamps required, and you use the same screw holes to install the new boards.

+1 on the suggestion to ensure you line up the holly carefully from panel to panel, I did not do this and it bugs me... but not enough for a do-over!

I am planning to remake floorboards this winter. I have old ones for pattern. Would be interested in any tips, on or off list, that anyone has for patterning, cutting, finishing. Plan to epoxy all sides, then varnish. Thinking of m making full size masonite patterns , attach with double sided tape to new floor stock, then use straight cutting bit in router to cut. Thoughts welcome.
